"Where I Put My Works That Are Meant For Showcasing My Descriptions From The Past As A Reference." - Disclaimer

Title: Nice Place to Start...

I. The sands of the desert began to shift and shape, the dunes alternating and changing their shape to assume a form of an entirely different looking desert completely, which would add to those people who were to get lost in there, since nothing ever stayed the same. The sands blocked out the sun, carried by magic, many illuminating eyes peering from the distance... thousands of red, gleaming eyes, all staring at Skye upon his arrival, unblinking.

II. The sand under Skye compacted severely, then began to swirl in a whirlpool sort of fashion. The thousands of eyes spread across the desert seemed to belong to one monster, who was circular in shape... with teeth around the inside of its hole. It slammed onto the opening of the compacted sand, joining with it, making the whirlpool of sand going on its throat. It planned on swallowing Skye whole.

III. The monstrosity spoke "Why do you come here? You will be trapped in this desert forever, you fool.. I despise tourists ever so much..." The desert had suddenly and instantly shifted... The entire desert was on a vertical plane instead of a horizontal plane, now. Soon afterward, the desert sands became the sky, then became the ground and the horizon... Nothing in Skye's view except sand, pouring from the sky, rushing from the ground.. And this beast was suddenly multiplied. 5 of them, now, each on a different plane of sand. "There is no way... No way.. State your business and you may live to see tomorrow..." A few of the beasts spake in unison.

IV. Swiftly, the sands returned to normal and hte monsters all merged together into one gigantic creature... Who in turn shrunk himself to his normal size, which was about 3 feet tall. His head was pointy and jagged, his arms were long and nubby, his legs were nonexistant, since his entire lower torso technically made up the eternal desert in its entirety... The small creature made of sand utterly and purely stared at Skye up and down with his glowing yellow eyes "... Boot camp, you say? I despise visitors... Tourists... The whole like... I, the almighty sand spirit Fislo should be the only one to exist here at all times..." Fislo's torso extended upward to meet Skye at eye level "... Persuade me. Perhaps if there is a good enough reason, you will be pardoned... And I will let you train those wretched, annoying, insignificant infidels you call ninja here..."

V. Bing! Fislo was excited. One of his favorite passtimes was torture of mortals. "... Me? Punish those little noisy brats? Why, I would love to..." Fislo shrunk back to his normal size of 3 feet "You, sir, have a deal... Just make sure you let me know when you're coming... Unexpected company makes me angry..." Hell, any company made him angry. "... So. I am assuming you will be needing to find the quickest way out?"

VI. Fislo narrowed his eyes. He was never fond of kind words... Well, that might have been a given. "... Of course..." was all he muttered, closing his eyes a bit. His jagged head started to flow a little bit like fire, and almost instantly, those both were at the very edge of the desert, yet they had not moved. "There is your exit. You may take your leave... I will be waiting." Swiftly, a humongous sandstorm swooped straight down the edge of teh desert, blocking out all sight of Fislo and the desert in their entirety.

Title: Reap "Doomicus"

I. Naturally, this place contained no light and no light passed through, not a single drop. This place was illuminated merely by the outlines of everything, which was a slight grayish color, and they did not glow, they only showed distinctions between things. Eventually as Sibs would walk, she would see 2 random Dreadnids crawling about the walls and ground.

They spotted her, hissing at her quite loudly "An interloper! Elimination..." Hundreds of sickle legs began to sprout out of their bodies, signaling that they were ready for battle.

II. The two dreadnids were at an advantage here. They could manifest themselves from and into any sort of blackness. One would extend all of its legs in Sibs' general direction, however the legs would disappear for a moment... and reappear slicing and dicing at Sibs from every which way, due to their ability to manifest from the blackness, it was really hard to tell where they would come from or where they were going. The other dreadnid began to store some of its demonic fire within its head, the flame getting bigger... and bigger... and bigger...

III. The dreadnid who was attacking had its legs incinerated, however they quickly were replaced as if nothing happened at all. It did not affect its body since its body was made of blackness, which was indeed non existent, however able to take a form, if that makes sense. The head would reappear elsewhere through the blackness, trying to avoid the plasma as best it could. The second dreadnid whose flame was getting larger spewed out its demonic flame that began to combat the plasma, seeming as if it were losing to the plasma for a while... Though eventually, the plasma became weaker the longer it stayed in the flame and soon was totally consumed by the flame, making the flame grow larger. A flame that ate whatever was in its way.. the demonic flame. So long as it had something to burn, it could continue to live on. The second dreadnid who was now a little ways away began to store energy for its flame as well, just as the one before it did.

IV. Indeed, from a point blank range, the first dreadnid could not avoid, especially since it was already spewing demonic fire. Its head would absorb the blast, since the demon fire surrounded the head, however a few seconds later, the head exploded, remains being incinerated by its own demonic flame, and the blackness dispersed, the concentration of nothingness leaving and a soul floating in its place. The other dreadnid would spew out a demonic flame as well, which would devour the plasma as well, thus leaving nothing. The dreadnid began to charge energy again, however this time... It was on the move. It began to crawl at exceptional speeds, moving all of its legs like locomotion, providing a great deal of speed. It would run through building, looking as if it were disappearing, since the buildings were black and thus allowed the dreadnid to enter and exit at will because of the fact that it can manifest through blackness at will. The flame got larger as it moved, for it would not stop charging.

V. Out of literally nowhere, hundreds of sickle-like objects began to jab at Sibs from every possible direction, trying to impale her without her knowing where it would come from. The dreadnid's legs were of course manifesting themselves around her. The dreadnid then started to slip out of the blackened pavement from under Sibs' legs, firing the demonic flame out without hesitation.

VI. The dreadnid's vulnerable head was penetrated, thus having the flame implode on itself and take the head with it, the blackness becoming nothing but the atmosphere of this place once again. The soul would be the only thing that remained. In the distance, some eyes were seen watching her. These eyes indeed belonged to the one and only, Doomicus.

"You! Being of plasma! You are not welcomed here. You will exit immediately, or you will suffer the wrath of the almighty evil energy master, Doomicus. You get... One chance..." His eyes narrowed as the long arms extending from his head balled into fists, the X's on his body glowing (though it wasn't apparent, since everything was.. well... dark).

VII. Doomicus' head arms unclenched as Doomicus closed his eyes ".. Well. So be it." The hands on his head suddenly expanded to great proportions, looming menacingly over the immediate area. From them came huge rays of pure evil energy that was disguised by the lack of light and the blackness of the area, thus making it look like the atmosphere. Doomicus' 2 free hands would clench tightly as his eyes opened, more beams of evil energy shooting from out of the X's surrounding his body. He looked at the building next to him and he raised a fist...

VIII. Doomicus suddenly disappeared out of sight in a blur, but to where? During the eruption, no sign of Doomicus was present. The building he had previously looked at toppled over, but it could have been from the explosion of fire... But it wasn't. The building suddenly floated over the eruption blast and was hurled into Sibs from directly above, the explosion it caused from impact with anything unleashing a gigantic amount of evil energy somehow embedded into it. There, right above was Doomicus. He had escaped the volcanic blast via his speed and ability to phase through solid objects at will, thus allowing him to grab the building in time. The hands on his head would point upward and he would ascend higher into the air slowly, but surely, evil energy enveloping him.

IX. Doomicus' body, radiating with the evil energy, suppressed the explosions for some time, leaving them to do little damage to his actual body. Besides that, Doomicus' body was extremely durable, anyway, and had a special secret to keep him going... Doomicus continued to ascend, waving his hand and making huge X marks in the sky appear and float around Sibs, releasing large amounts of the evil energy as well. Doomicus' head arms made the shape of an X and that same X appeared in the sky, starting to expand rather slowly. There would be a loud ripping sound before the hands were actually free to move again. All of them.

X. Doomicus moved closer toward the expanding X in the sky as the particle beam neared him. Once it was close enough, he would move out of the way and the giant X would suck it in and crush it, like it was a mouth and the beam was food. There would be nothing left of the particle beam as it was crushed by the X. The other X's that did not expand floating around Sibs would attempt to do the same thing, however trying to suck her in as well as expel X beams of evil energy from them as well. Doomicus' body was wrapped in evil energy once again, this time so thick that his body couldn't even be seen through the energy.

XI. Doomicus, being enveloped in the evil energy, slowed the process of the spreading as well as weakened the beams coming at him. To combat some of those beams, more X's ripped into the sky around him and followed him, orbiting his body. He could withstand this onslaught for a while. Doomicus could go in for a Kamikaze attack... Or try to take out everything before he was taken out. Maybe a little of both. He shot down to the ground at a massive speed, making several... EVIL sonicbooms on his way down and punched the ground, making an enormous explosion that took up just about everything in the area. Everything was destroyed, however due to his evil energy being... evil... The buildings and ground and shit would reform after being hit by taking in some of his energy. Unleashing this energy caused the spreading to accelerate back to its normal pace, but he was not done. More evil energy surrounded him and again slowed down the process, but this time, he did not unleash it. Only stored it... More and more evil energy...

XII. Doomicus could feel his body being converted, and this was not to his advantage. He snarled, glancing up at Sibs and in a blur, moving to the exact center of the entire area "You will be taken with me... If I cannot have your head!!" Doomicus' body began to fall apart, his legs, arms, head, torso, all falling to pieces, then dissipating into soul energy as they fell. The final parts was his core with the skull still attached. The core grew and grew and grew, but out of nowhere it imploded into a singularity for a few seconds, then finally exploded once more with all of the energy Doomicus had within him, again ravaging the entire area to no end. A few seconds after the ultimate destruction, the soul floated there, a little larger than normal souls, being worth about 10 of them, ready for the taking if Sibs were to survive.

Title: Friday Collects Some Souls

I. With the tombstones shattering, 5 skeletons would rise from the ground, as well as 5 zombies. They would moan quite angrily, staring at Friday. The tallest Skeleton then spoke "You have disturbed our slumber. We will take you down under the ground with us, so that we may rest in peace...!" The skeletons retrieved many weapons, one had a sword, one a spear, one a bone whip, one an axe and the other... a lightsaber COUGHCOUGHCOUGH. Thus, each skeleton will be identified accordingly. Each also had a shield. The zombies were bare. The Sword Skeleton and 2 Zombies would follow in behind him, rushing up to Friday first while the others stayed back, on their guard.

II. The Skeleton would naturally fall from such a close range barrage, leaving nothing but a soul. One Zombie would be cut by the sword, falling to the ground quite quickly and easily, leaving only a soul, but the other Zombie would disassemble itself when the sword came close, then use the bodyparts from the other Zombie and the fallen Skeleton to reform itself and make itself a giant Zombie Skeleton. Rather than attacking, like a normal Zombie, this Zombie ran back to the group of Skeletons and Zombies and tried to merge with them as well so they could kill Friday quite quickly instead of being picked off one by one.

III. The Zombie Monster slashed away the arrows with the Bone Sword that it had acquired with its new Skeletal arms. As such, it would then grab and absorb the Spear Skeleton, the Lightsaber Skeleton, the Axe Skeleton and the Whip Skeleton, as well as the remaining 3 zombies. Now there were 8 souls combined into one monster... Bravo.

IV. As for the Salt, the zombie skeleton would raise its 5 shield above itself to keep the salt from hurting it, although the salt would slowly begin to dissolve the shields, and ass such, it detached those arms from its body and took off. The Whip arm would whip at Friday, most likely hitting her since she was totally open and not attacking. After she was hit by the whip, the other weapon wielding arms would try to attack her violently while she was down.

V. The Zombie would do nothing but grab Friday with one of its many Zombie arms, since is skeleton arms had failed and begin to try to decay her body and absorb her into itself, thus killing her and giving it the power of a witch. It wouldn't be long before she was completely destroyed by the grasp of the Zombie thing...

VI. Unfortunately for the monster, it was forced to go to sleep, which would leave it wide open for attack. If only it were an insomniac or something of the sort.

VII. The creature would shriek, its body dissipating, leaving a slightly larger soul that seemed to pulsate larger than a normal soul. It was worth 8 souls... But as that thing died, the ground began to rumble violently for a moment, then it stopped...

VIII. What would appear would be an extremely rare beast... a Ghost, rather, that being Yureinna

Upon her appearing, all of Friday's abilities, special powers and magic would be nullified. Friday now only had her bare hands and her weapon to attack. No magic, no Dream Flow, no nothing. Just a weapon and her hands. Yureinna would giggle a bit, flailing her sleeves childishly.

IX. Yureinna would just... simply... Disappear as Friday tried to attack her, appearing behind her and giggling, playfully whipping her with one of her exceedingly long sleeves.

X. Yureinna would disappear again, reappearing behind Friday once more, wrapping her sleeves around Friday and flinging her into a tree or something, giggling still. She would ominously float closer to the tree in which she had just flung Friday.

XI. Even though the Yureinna was not expecting this strike, she still had time to dodge since she could disappear instantaneously. After disappearing, she would quickly reappear and proceed in whipping Friday playfully and continuously, knowing that Friday could do nothing to really stop her.

XII. Even though it was a good effort, it was still useless. The Yureinna's sleeve whips were cut off, but being a ghost, they just extended outward again with a ghostly... ghostliness. This time, the Yureinna would wrap the sleeves around Friday and float around the cemetery, dragging Friday across the ground and into things as she did so, seeming to be enjoying herself quite a bit. Tombstones, trees, hills, you name it, Friday was getting slammed and dragged into them as Yureinna cutely and obliviously flew around playfully.

XIII. Finally, the Yureinna stopped. She floated down to Friday, staring at her beat up body and stuff, giggling happily and released her from her ghastly grip. Yureinna had a happy expression on her face, just floating in front of Friday, not moving from that spot at all. She just simply floated in front of her.

XIV. Yureinna let herself get stabbed, giggling and waving at Friday before she was converted into a rather large soul. This soul was worth about 25 souls. That was extremely low considering the type of monster and the rarity of the monster that was. As such, the soul would hover over to Friday, awaiting her to consume it...

Title: Soul Hunting In The Land Of Eternal Rain

I. 5 Fox Kitties would be seen, glaring at Takai and Furiko in the distance. They tried not to be seen, but they seemed pretty angry to begin with. Without warning, they would shoot their super sharp hairs out at them nonstop.

II. The Fox Kitties, being exceptionally quick, darted off in a blur of pinkness, seeming to disappear as they did. They started running through the forest, trees falling because of them passing by, their fur accidentally cutting them down, only to show how sharp and durable their hairs were. 2 of them would dash at Takai from the back, their speed making it almost inevitable that he would be split in two if they passed, and the other 3 would leap high into the air and rain down their hairs all on the area of Takai.

III. The two paralyzed by the poison would naturally die, being changed into souls, but the 3 in the sky would begin to swirl violently, creating a sort of miniature razor sharp... pink tornado. They would hover above the ground, demolishing and drilling through trees at a high speed, trying to cut up Takai.

IV. Yes yes, the remaining Fox Kitties were dead now. Aw. That sucks. Now there was 5 souls that were free for Takai. Yay. But just then, out of nowhere came... 3 Bou monsters!

V. One of the Bous would wobble closer to Takai, arms flailing cutely. It would then... proceed to... Pummel the fuck out of him by moving its arms at faster than blinding speeds, watching Takai carefully. Naturally, the fists would be aimed for weak spots and spots where Furiko would perfectly not touch the arms. The eyes of the Bou could see everything, including slight movements, and Bou could move accordingly... For the most part.

VI. The first Bou monster's arms would fall off, making it fall over and cry, leaving it open to be killed by Furiko. The other 2 Bou's took note of this. As such, they began to make powerful punches from where they were, not connecting with Takai, but releasing powerful and forceful shockwaves from the air that should push him away. If Furiko were to attack, their stretchy arms would bend away from her or their durable fists would punch her away. They began to back up, however, as they released these shockwaves.

VII. Naturally, the instant Takai changed into the puddle, the Bous saw it. They can see the slightest of movements from all around due to their extremely large eyes. They would punch the ground, launching themselves up into the air, wrapping an arm around a tree, then continued to punch at Takai from afar, sending out more shockwaves and avoiding Furiko completely.

VIII. The Bous would let go, falling to the ground and passing out. They would then be sliced up into chunks, leaving only their souls.

Title: Chroma Goes Searching For Souls In The Desert!

I. In the murky sands of the desert, 10 small, floating figures were seen... Hovering closer to Chroma. They were Hoverons, random robots in the middle of the desert for no given reason.

II. One Hoveron would take the attacks, instantly being cut up and destroyed, leaving only its soul, but the other 9 would simply... Well... Hover out of the way! Hahaha. They hovered closer to Chroma, 5 of them storing a large amount of energy within their heads while the other 4's arms began to surge and crackle with high voltage electricity. 2 of those 4 would launch their arms at Chroma, trying to shock and paralyze her from above.

III. The 2 Hoverons that launched their arms would get exploded by the blasts as well, leaving nothing but their souls. The other 2 that had tazer arms fell back, storing energy within their heads now. The other 5 with energy in their heads already would begin to fire a huge amount of energy and electricity from Chroma from all sides.

IV. As the winds started to pick up, there would be something seen in the distance, but just barely. It didn't seem to be very threatening... Until it emerged from the ground, leaping high above Chroma, spotting her as it did so.

V. As Chroma ran up on the Land Shark's fin, it would dive under the sand completely, then pop up randomly under her, smacking her into the air with its tail fin. It would then dive under the sand once again, only to quickly pop back out straight up into the air, spinning violently, trying to cut up Chroma in every way possible.

VI. The Land Shark, still spinning, would shmack the arrows away with its extremely hard and durable skin and fins, making the arrows do little to no damage to it. It finally stopped spinning, glaring directly at Chroma. It would begin to rotate its body as it came down, smacking Chroma with its tail and slamming both her and itself into the ground. If Chroma didn't have some sort of defense, she would be cleaved in half completely.

VII. The Land Shark actually was under Chroma, bursting from the sand with its mouth wiiiide open. It was going to eat Chroma and her weapons completely and without warning, turning them into dirt inside of its digestive system.

VIII. The shark was stunned from the blast, not not yet dead. Even its insides were extremely durable. It would begin to flail around on the sand in pain, unable to actually go under for some reason. If Chroma wanted to finish it off, this was the time.

IX. That soul of the Land Shark was worth 20 souls. It was only a baby. It wasn't worth that much. Either way, the area was now clear of all enemies... For now. If Chroma wanted to leave, this was probably the time.

Title: Must... Devour...

I. Just then, 5 Land Sharks would speed at Mederei quite ferociously from the distance. They seemed to be pissed off by just her presence, for some reason. They did not seem like they were going to let up in their charge at her...

II. Because the Land Sharks had nowhere to go, they would instantly be stabbed and killed, their souls being pulled out of their bodies. Their souls were each worth 10 souls. They were babies... But a HUGE earthquake happened right after... Something bigger was coming... a LOT bigger and a LOT more powerful...

III. A Hugatu would appear now. Actually, 3. What annoying things. These things were not the boss of the place, however, but merely his pawns. They would destroy Mederei, or were sent to, that is. They all laughed hysterically, glaring at Mederei with heir insane eyes.

Title: Enter The Ruins

I. The barrier would indeed be lifted due to her being a witchling, but only for a moment, and if she did not take this moment to go in, it would probably be a while before she would be able to get in without any outside help.

II. A very depressing beast would make its way toward Tyrande... and a rather annoying beast at that. It was Stitches.

Stitches were doll-creatures with the special ability to automatically begin to drain your energy and power from your body. Slowly, but surely. Once it caught sight of Tyrande, it would already be draining her power. It raised its claws threateningly, but did nothing.

III. Stitches would split apart from all around, all except for the hand, which propelled itself into the air. The doll would reform in the air, being sewn back together by the hand at an unnaturally insane speed. The hand would throw several needles at the wolves at a great speed, the doll flailing its soul ripping claws in the direction of Tyrande as it fell to the ground. The hand would note anything that may happen while coming to close range of Tyrande.

IV. On a normal occasion, Stitches would be able to sew itself back up from that attack, however the magical arm that had shattered was not attached anymore and had lost its needle, meaning its doll body would die as well as it, making it shrivel up and poof into a soul. As this commotion was heard, 3 STYKCZ would appear out of the ground.

These STYKCZ would merely stare at Tyrande, seeming unaffected by the coldness of the air for some reason... maybe because of their energy appendages and stuff. Their energy appendages flailed about violently as they ingrained their singular leg into the ground, thus quickly making an intricate amount of alternate routes for it to travel instantaneously via its leg. These little appendage thingies would slither out of the ground under Tyrande, despite that the STYKCZ were far away, and attempt to ensnare her and siphon her energies into themselves. Yep. Seems like a lot of energy suckers were around in this period of time. Yay for energy vampires.

V. The STYKCZ would take advantage of their special ability to become 2 dimensional, becoming completely and utterly flat, pasting themselves to the ground. As such, the force of the attack was lessened greatly to them because of this. They would then begin to move across the ground, moving right under Tyrande, their energy appendages unpasting from the ground and turning side ways in the way that Tyrande wouldn't see them coming from the angle she was at. Thus, they would dart right at her in an attempt to pierce and drain her as well as wrap around her and pull her down. Note that all 3 of them were doing this at once.

VI. As the appendage hit Tyrande, it would suck out a small chunk of her magic to it, but indeed, the gravitational force thingy would suck them in and crush them completely, which would leave them as only 3 souls. As they died, however, 3 new beasts, the Shmoops, would appear, glaring at Tyrande through squinted eyes. They were also energy vampires of sorts.

2 would become intangible and invisible right away while the other one would flap its wings and fly into the air, shooting a ray of complete evil energy from the eye on its chin.

VII. Now here was where things would get a bit more difficult... The invisible Shmoops were invisible for a reason. They were invisible so that they could get behind Tyrande, and when the gravitational pull sucked them in, they would be pulled through Tyrande due to their intangibility and when an intangible Shmoop goes through someone, it steals a massive amount of your energy. As such, if Tyrande were to have 2 of them pass through her, she would have very little, if any power left. The visible Shmoop would just flap its hideous wings as fast and as hard as it could to prevent being pulled in for as long as it could. Its eyes slowly began to open just a bit... If its eyes were to open completely before it were killed... It would be bad for Tyrande as well.

VIII. The tangible Shmoop would most definitely be crushed, and as for the other 2 Shmoops, since they were energy vampires as well, just like it seemed that everything here was, they would be looking for Tyrande's energy no matter what. They would go through her, but unfortunately for them, it would end with them getting catastrophically getting... obliterated~! Thus, leaving 3 more souls for Tyrande. With that done, they let out horrible howls as they died, which seemed to be calling something a little bit more powerful... 4 Demi Bats!

These things were the LITERAL energy vampires, but they weren't the thing that the Shmoops had called for... They were just its bodyguards... What the real challenge there was...

Hugatu, a creature that is extremely rare, but extremely horrific to fight for numerous reasons. Naturally, it would be worth a hefty amount of souls and it would be the last thing here, the commander of the outbreak of monsters. Once this was gone, the mission would be complete. It cackled, staring at Tyrande from afar, as did its little Demi Bat bodyguards.

IX. The term 'Energy Vampire' could be used loosely for these fiends, as they just devoured the first non-physical attacks they could, especially the Hugatu, who would probably survive via this ability. Luckily for them, Tyrande wouldn't know about such. The Demi Bats merely opened their cute little expansive mouths, similar to that of Kirby and just... floated around the Hugatu, the Hugatu spewing a large and powerful stream of purely acidic awesomeness at Tyrande in a cannon stream sort of blast. It would take a lot to block, which it assumed she had to do, since it was unaware as to if she could dodge its acid stream or not. The mouths on its feet became implanted into the ground...

X. 2 Demi Bats would float up to her, trying to eat her magical energies as she began to store them... As long as they were close enough, they could eat a tiny portion and become that energy, thus becoming immune to it. Light and Lunar... what good abilities those would be. Regardless, Hugatu was set because of his 3 feet. His 2 mouths would spew acid into the air, trying to fall on Tyrande to dissipate her without destroying the Demi Bats, or, in fact, having the Demi Bats eat the energy if they couldn't avoid it.

XI. The Demi Bats might be safe, even if the Hugatu wasn't. If one of the Demi Bats absorbed the acid, it would become liquidy, thus unable to be crushed because of the liquidy acidic state. The Hugatu would be crushed, however, since it didn't jump up and absorb any energies from Tyrande, it was all... Bad. Thus, it would release a soul worth 10 souls. The Demi Bat could also merge itself with the others, keeping them safe in its liquidy acidic state.. Thus, becoming one big Demi Bat. But the best part was, since only one Demi Bat absorbed the Acid, the other 3 were normalized and the giant Demi Bat could absorb 3 more energies, thus becoming immune to them. The giant Demi Bat would explode with an acidic, spherical blast of acidic doom, trying to take everything down by melting it... to death. Yay?

XII. The Demi Bat would float up to her level, spewing acid high into the air, making Acid Rain in the most literal sense. It would start off as a drizzle, but as time would progress, it would change into a downpour unless the Demi Bat was defeated. It would glare at Tyrande, acid fluctuating around it maliciously.

XIII. Again, the Demi Bat was still liquid. Being slashed would only result in it splitting into 2 blobs of acidic liquid, then reforming back together into its giant form. It would then proceed to melt itself onto the ground, trying to burn the shadow (somehow..) as the acid rain continued to pick up. There was no real way to physically hurt a liquid being, and this being could still absorb 3 more energy-esque things while the acidic rain was still pouring. Tyrande would be in a pinch, eh?

XIV. The Demi Bats would be slashed once more, but in the end, would be just split back up into 4 separate Demi Bats once again (You know, like in those video games where you kill a big monster and it just splits into smaller versions that will just continue to merge back together until you kill them all~). (This is gonna be a bit tedious, you know. XD) Just to pull a Kirby moment, the Demi Bats would eat each other, or rather 'store' each other in their mouths. The first Demi Bat would spit the other high into the air, which would spew the next even further up, which would spew the next even higher, toward the clouds, then the next above the clouds... The 2 highest Demi Bats would begin to absorb energy. The one above the clouds would absorb the heat from the sun while the one closest to the clouds would suck in the gaseous.. gas... of the clouds... and such. Thus, they would change into heat and gas respectively. The other 2 stayed normal, attempting to fend off Tyrande with their limited power, flapping their tiny wings and gnashing their fangs and whatnot cutely.

XV. The 2 souls would pop up out of the dead ones, but the heat and the gas ones would begin to use their powers to do... stuff. The gas one would expand itself enough so that it cast no shadow whatsoever, attempting to suck out all of the air from under it (which would be in Tyrande's area) while the heat one would try to heat up the ground via the heat from the core of the planet and rising its temperature a great amount to make it all... burny. Of Tyrande. And stuff. While still staying up high. Yay.

XVI. Finally, the last 2 Demi Bats were gone. How tragic. They were so cute and fun~! Oh well. Tyrande would have her souls now. Mission complete.

Title: Finding The Kappa's Soul

I. A Fox Kitty would be seen emerging from the hole of a tree, spotting Raven and Simca, however not being afraid because they were quite distant from each other. It would continue to stare at them, not making a noise.

II. The Fox Kitty would become frightened, its hairs would stand on end, making a *SHING* sound, as if they were... swords. The kitty would then disappear... It moves so fast that when it did move, it looked like it disappeared. It was frightened, and therefore was going to attack. 19 more appeared as well, all coming out of the trees. There were 20 Fox Kitties staring and hissing at Simca and Raven, looking quite terrified. One would spin around extremely fast, cutting down the tree. Their hairs were sharper and harder than steel, which meant that this would be very bad. They all huddled together, still staring at them and hissing.

III. The ground was indeed moist and they became frozen, but they moved so fast that their vibrations could weaken the ice and their extremely hard and sharp hairs could slice through quite easily, making them all escape with little effort. They took to the trees, running up them.. And without warning, thin strands of almost invisible hair would rain down at a high speed, trying to stab and impale them both.

IV. 2 of the Fox Kitties were hurt in the process, falling out of the tree to the ground in front of Raven. They were still hissing, but it seemed like they couldn't move. The other 18 jumped out of the trees, nimbly dodging the ice and darkness like it was nothing. They started running around the forest uber fast, dashing at Raven from all sides trying to cut him while they passed.

V. 8 more kitties would die by being cut up, but the other 10 would bounce off of their bodies and out of range of the strings. They would then shoot down from the sky a hell of a lot of sharp fur needle things to try to cut up the area and Raven too.

VI. Another 9 would be wiped out, but somehow the last one survived. It would come back down and hiss at Raven, lunging at his face viciously, trying to claw it off and cut him with its sharpened fur stuff.

VII. Well, there were 20 souls there for the taking of Raven... To feed to his partner. Raven would be close to the water now, the water where the Kappa lives, but before he got there, he would encounter 3 Aquanaughts! (I don't feel like getting the picture, just go look at it yourself in the Bestiary of the Reality.) The 3 Aquanaughts would jump out of the water and fire boomerang blades at him at a high speed without warning.

VIII. The Aquanaughts would block effectively using their sharpened bodyparts and blades all over them, falling back into the water with a splash. Suddenly, one would burst up behind Raven from underground, since it was always raining in the forest and the Aquanaughts could instantly appear from any sort of liquid source. That Aquanaught would try to slash at his back nonstop, blocking itself when it needed to. The other 2 would come in from the front, launching their blades like boomerangs again.

IX. The 2 surviving Aquanaughts would slip and fall, but then start to spin as they slid toward Raven, trying to drill through him and the ice, cutting up everything in their way.

X. Finally, out of the water came the Kappa. It was small and cute. (I don't have a picture of it. XD ) "Hey. You. What are you doing here?" It jumped out on the shore and stared at him.

XI. The Kappa would punch the beam of darkness and it would be deflected. "Hey, guy! That's not cool!" Due to his incredible strength, he would punch the ground and create an earthquake, cracking the ground and stuff, then stand closer to the water, touching it with a fin...

Title: Gathering Souls

I. JUST THEN, OUT OF NOWHERE, 3 CUTE LITTLE BOUS APPEARED!!!

II. The Bou creatures would punch through the fire with blinding speed, repelling it from the incredible force of their punches. The wind would also be repelled by said force, due to the resulting shockwaves that come from their fists when they punch hard in the air. One Bou would jump into the air, releasing a flurry of punches down on the two, the other would begin punching from in front and the final one merely stood there, doing nothing but looking so cuuute~!

III. The Bous were no match, thus being instantly destroyed by this attack and thus, leaving only their souls. SOOOOUUUULSSSSSS for Yui and Chloe. Yay.

OH, BUT WAIT, THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE. Another monster quickly appeared from the depths of the grave... Something much more terrifying... Much more powerful... Much more..... DEATH INFUSED!!! Twas a Death Scythe.

"... Leave this place... Or suffer my wrath..."

IV. The Death Scythe snarled viciously at them, saying in a low, ominous tone "Fools... You do not know the power which you are up against... Silencega..."

That being said, a massive area around the Death Scythe, almost the entire graveyard, flashed with a massive seal of some sorts. Silence spells sealed any and all forms of sound, as well as sealed all forms of magic. Thus, if the twins were to enter this massively silenced area, they'd be at a severe disadvantage... Or, even worse, if they were caught within it, they, themselves would be silenced and unable to use their own magic, in which the Death Scythe would find it much easier to reap their souls.

Though, the Death Scythe itself was not immune to the effects of the Silence, so it would be hindered by its own spell... However, it was not as great a hindrance as it would be to the twins.

V. The Death Scythe was a ghost. Therefore, it floated. Therefore, the earthquake served no purpose. It only gave the Death Scythe a better chance to use its ability, Spellbreaker, which, in turn, made any non-physical attack that this hit instantly nullified nullified. As such, it would be using this ability on the barrier, and whilst they were conjuring up the earthquake, said barrier could be attacked with the Spellbreaker and destroyed, letting the Silencega flow as proposed. Spellbreaker was one of the few abilities that the Death Scythe had that didn't require it to say anything or use magic.

The Death Scythe would then warp around the graveyard at an exceedingly fast rate, trying to find an open spot to strike the two with another devastating ability of its; Steal Thoughts.

Title: Soul Hunting in The Graveyard

I. Chita's loud outburst, even though stopped midway, was heard throughout the graveyard. There were terrible moans that could wake the dead once her outburst was made known... In fact, what was that popping up from the ground? Typical Zombies. About 3 of them, to be exact.

The Zombies groaned loudly, dragging themselves to where they first heard the noise coming from... They didn't seem anymore deadly than a zombie from your generic horror classic...

II. The Boos rushed in on the Zombies fast, and the Zombies tried to attack them, but there was no avail. They just kept disappearing. They continued to swat at the Boos like mindless corpses, moaning louder and louder with their growing frustration. Eventually, they started to use Magic. They all simultaneously used the spell Dark on the Boos, making small explosions of darkness and shadows around them. They didn't like when things attacked them.

Though, from all of the commotion, there was a low grumbling under the ground. It sounded large and caused the ground to rumble slightly. It wasn't exactly that noticeable due to the moaning of the Zombies, but.. Something was coming..

III. As the Boos went inside of the zombies, they would rip out their souls, leaving them to crumble, and leaving the Boos to do whatever they wished with said souls.

But now there was something else lurking in the area... The grumbling got louder... As if a horrid, screeching, ominous roar was heard throughout the area. The ground started to crack a bit... And finally, sprouting from the ground and into the skies was the immense Dracozombie.

It gave a powerful, wailing-like roar and glared at the living beings Tyrande and Chita. It randomly looked up to the sky, conjuring something in its mouth... And without warning, it unleashed a massive barrage of lightning at the two via the Thundara spell.

IV. The Dracozombie noticed some sort of magic being conjured, and would quickly react by trying to fly away. Though, the tendrils got it by the tail, causing it to fall to the ground. It immediately started to unleash in Zombie Breath at the two of them, since it would seem it couldn't break free.

V. The Dracozombie, having nowhere to go, would first be stunned and charred by Tyrande's rune, then be incinerated by the large, green fireball, leaving a soul that was slightly larger than the souls of the other ones. Yaaaay, it's dead. Teamwork.

VI. The horde appears.

From the depths of the graves, the holes of the trees, the holes in the grounds and the blow of the wind came a great deal of undead creatures which yearned for this feast.

In the front, 3 typical zombies craving flesh and such.

And beside them, what seemed to be 2 Vampires

And floating above, a gigantic Whale Zombie

But not only this, 3 Skeletons as well.

and finally, 2 Ghosts

These 11 creatures were all hungry for such a feast... And thought that Tyrande and Chita were the meal. They all gave a chorus of moans as if they were going to violently attack soon...

VII. First and foremost, all of the undead here had a specific advantage... For if Tyrande were using Darkness/Shadows of any kind, they absorbed it for power. Thus, it would backfire if she were to hit them... Next, the Vampires had a certain 'sense' about these sorts of things, and because they could warp, would quickly pinpoint Tyrande's magic wherever she may be and surround her. They would then simultaneously use Drain Touch to try to suck out some of her life with their hands.

The Zombies would rush at Chita mindlessly, however they were conjuring up some sort of magic... The 3 of them would use Miasma at the same time to create a magical, gigantic abyss of evil and Poison, trying to suck her in with its incredible power and poison her beyond compare.

The Skeletons would back up the Vampires by casting Dark on them... Or at least 2 casted Dark on them so that they wold always have their full health and power, while the other one would cast Thunder on the hopefully trapped Tyrande.

The Ghosts each split up; One went to Tyrande and the other to Chita. The ghost that went to Tyrande made its hands warp over to her, using its Silence Touch ability trying to silence her so that she couldn't use magic anymore. The one that went to Chita would do the exact same thing, trying to Silence her, as well.

Finally, the Whale Zombie went to Chita. It was immense, even compared to her own size at this moment... I mean, it was the carcass of a whale. It took in a deep breath and spewed its Zombie Breath, trying to fill the entire graveyard with its zombie...ness.

VIII. Even if physical, the darkness just caused them to regenerate, serving no purpose in a real attack against them. This was the main advantage of the Undead from the Final Fantasy world... Though the Maelstrom easily took out the skeletons... One of the Vampires was taken out, but the other quickly got out via warping, though because of the position of the ghost, it was also taken out, leaving 5 souls for Tyrande at this point.

On Chita's end, 2 of the zombies were hit by the fire, but one survived, leaving 2 souls for her. Naturally, the ghost was consumed by the Boo, and the Whale Zombie easily evaded the attack. There were 2 souls waiting for Chita.

In retaliation, the Vampire warped next to the Whale Zombie and the Zombie used Miasma again, though this time targeting Tyrande inside of her Maelstrom. Probably wouldn't do anything, but Zombies aren't that smart... And finally, the Whale Zombie started conjuring up a powerful spell... It seemed like the very essence of death was about to come...

IX. The Whale Zombie already had itself fully protected from the wind attack, for it would open its mouth and let out a horrific moan, the Ultra Soundwave. The Ultra Soundwave would not only shrink the power of the attack down to an eighth of what it originally was, but also the size, making the attack minuscule and weak.

The Vampire would take hand it taking out the weakened spear, using Shadow Flare to cause a massive explosion where it was on the same proportions as a normal Flare, however now imbued with darkness and evil, completely obliterating it and hopefully doing some damage to the area, Tyrande and Chita at the same time, plus healing the other undeads and taking out the weak ass fireball from Chita.

The Zombie got ate cuz it's stupid, though.

The Whale Zombie would feel the effects of the Shadow Flare, feeling revitalized, and would then cast the attack it had been charging... Death. However, it shrouded its own body in Death, meaning that whomever it was to touch would instantly die... Thus, it started to float over to Tyrande, since that was the last one to attack it, trying to use its Fin to shmack her with it. The Vampire stayed close.

X. With the barrage of attacks, the Vampire was torn as to what to protect the Whale Zombie from... And the Whale Zombie had no real means of getting through these attacks except for the Ultra Sound wave, which was shot out in concentration from its mouth, so it wouldn't be able to hit all of the other attacks if it did hit one. And so, this looked like their end.

However, the undead beings did not give up. The Vampire attempted to block Chita's attack with its Darkga spell, causing a large explosion of darkness (though not as large as the Shadow Flare), which seemed to work for a while, however the concentration of fire would burn through the Darkga and incinerate the Vampire, heading on to the Whale Zombie.

The Whale Zombie now had attacks from damn near every side of it... Bullets, fire and the black hands... Without any means of counterattack, the Whale Zombie would let out a horrific cry before being completely consumed by the attacks, leaving nothing but its own soul, worth about 10 normal souls, and the soul of the Vampire, worth about 5 souls.

Title: Reaping The Light Witch Katherine

I. Leia was correct. The polar plaza was crawling with dangerous creatures from every inch of the frozen wasteland. However, the dense icy winds made it nearly impossible for her to see any of them..if there were any left anyway.

Soon, the dense winds would calm however, revealing the surroundings of the Polar Plaza, and what Leia would see would something unheard of. All the monsters that plagued this specific area were all slaughtered about the vast land. Some where slashed, other burned, others frozen, others crushed. It looked like a slaughter house simply dumped its trash all over this cold forgotten land.

The destroyed monsters made some sort of trail..a trail that Leia undoubtedly would follow if she wanted to get to the bottom of this.

II. The trail would end at this magnificent giant icy cavern. It looked like it was some sort of sanctuary or cathedral before it became apart of this arctic tundra. While it was foolish for anyone to go in there alone, the magical intensity steaming from within its doors beckoned people like Leia to come fourth. A spectrum of colors could be seen from the inside.

III. Once she entered, Leia would find that it was no longer that cold on the inside. Rather, it was pretty warm. More than likely because of the constant fluctuations of magical energies that was plastered along the walls of the cave.

The deeper she ventured into the cave, the more intense the magics affect on the cave got. There were some ice sickles that were glowing the color spectrum violently. Other weird effects were also seen. Whatever this magical energy was coming from was in the center, and Leia was getting really close.

IV. Leia would reach the center of the cave and find beautiful serene land. Waterfalls and what not flowing with various colors like before. There were even some waterfalls that fell....up. Weird. Regardless, the magical effects on this land was apparent. And if Leia looked up, she would find out that she had reached her destination..

At the top and middle of the cavern was a shinning light. A light so intense it would illuminate the entire cavern, causing a light show for all to see.

"You..shouldn't..have come...here.."

The blinding cluster of light began to die down slightly, revealing a figure..a feminine figure. Her words sounded more of a warning than a threat, her sentence broken as if she were trying to force her words. Her wings flapped and with that, the light would fade entirely. It was Katherine, The Witch of Purging Light.

"Please...leave.."

V. "Please.."

The witch seemed to plead with Leia as she gripped her staff. She would wave it toward Leia as it to glowed with magical prowess. What it released was bright purging light that would incinerate anything that it illuminated. It began to degenerate the ground, the waters and all. The collateral was great and Leia was in serious danger of being next. She would have to find away to hide from the light if she didn't want to get burnt to a crisp..but the light was everywhere.

The witches face looked to have absolutely no emotion..but if one looked hard enough, they could see in her face....distress.

VI. So be it.

The witch's face didn't lose its empty plastered look. However, she did hold her staff high as she saw Leia come at her. Her eyes would glow along with the staff and soon, her entire body did. She became light itself and moved toward Leia at the speed of light of course, making it look like she simply appeared in front of Leia in the form of a massive ball of light.

She was moving so fast that the trail of light she left behind held multiple after images. All of which were beginning to do a variety of different things: Some were spinning their staffs over their heads, calling for a cluster of light to build around them in physical streams, some were siting some sort of incantation.

Katherine would regain her physical form as she pointed her staff in the direction where Leia flew. This called for her light images to release their spells upon her.

The ones who were spinning their staffs above their heads would point in the direction they were instructed and the physical streams of light would begin to swivel and twist their way toward Leia, taking the shape of ferocious dragons manifested of illuminated magical prowess.

The others who were siting a spell would thrust their hands toward the way Leia flew. In front of them, a barrier of would cage of the cave. That way Leia couldn't come back in. The barrier was made of the strongest magical power. She'd have to be Death Scythe to break through.

With that, Katherine would turn around and so would her light images. They would all fade away as she would fly up to the top of the cavern as she was before Leia interrupted her.

VII. Not expecting the strike, Katherine would take the blow in kind, flying toward the ground at a vicious velocity, a deep scar on her back side because of Leia's scythe.

However, when she hit the ground she would disappear into waters below. Speeding back up to Leia, her staff erected upwards, uppercutting her with it at light speed. The witch wasn't bleeding, which was odd even for a magical creature. She didn't even spare any emotion of pain or anguish, even with the rather large scar she had on her back.

The witch knew that despite who Leia was, she couldn't take to many head on light speed collisions. Those should be enough to bring any one to defeat.

VIII. The witch would hold up her staff yet again, this time causing a blue light to shine from the orb. The blue light began to shine so bright, that it would soon illuminate her entire area and then some

The blue shine would protect the witch from Leia's ferocious attack but at what cost?

Once Leia's attack faded, the blue light would simmer down and the witch would be seen, a bit out of breath. It seemed as if all that light speed movement was taking its toll on the witch, along with the blue illumination.

Leave this place..now!

The witch yelled, showing as much emotion she could; which if it may be added, wasn't much at all. The orb on the top of the witch's staff began to gather light around it in the form of physical streams. Light trails began to appear around her and her weapon. Once could say that Katherine was going to try and end this...now.

IX. The witch would be a little to winded to respond correctly to Leia's finishing strike. She would have to take the strike in kind and fly horribly quick toward the ground, that was a few hundred feet away.

Once she crashed she would make a considerably large crater to lay her head in.

Her eyes were closed as if she were unconscious, but the giant gash going from her left shoulder all the way to her outer right thigh said other wise. Magical energies steaming from her body and her staff. The intensities of which were causing nearby rocks to float elsewhere.

X. Of course she did, Katherine is my favorite toy.

Along with the mysterious voice, came several large beams of magical intensity; all of them a different color. They were all aimed at Leia and her immediate position. Whether she dodged or not was up to her, but they packed more of a punch than she had seen from any magical being.

However, it seems you've broken her. Damn Shibusen pawn.

From the serene waters, a ripple became to form as another magical creature surfaced themselves. Their appearance screamed witch and if it didn't, her power damn well did.

However, from the show you just put on, I'm sure you'll make a beautiful replacement, no?

XI. The witch would look up to Leia with the same smile she has in the picture. Her hands were at her sides, and she was simply chuckling; covering her mouth with one of her hands however. Why? It was lady like of course. Who said witches couldn't be lady like?

Of course you didn't think you'd won, did you little girl?

As the witch spoke, Katherine, the defeated Light Witch would turn into light itself, and become one with the strange new witch. What was odd, was that the Light Witch seemed to become one of her...tails?

She smirked as she watched Leia, her tails flailing softly and elegantly. They looked as if they were dancing or something.

Before you ask me who I am, or some question. I Phantisma, the Phantom Witch.

XII. But of course.

She said reaching behind her back and snuggling one of her tails, the very same tail that was the Light Witch.

Me being a phantom, I have the ability to repossess the souls I have killed. Katherine was the witch that occupied this land. She was such a nice woman, but she had such power that she wouldn't use. I just couldn't let it go to waste could I?

She said giggling darkly. Her body began to become ghastly and see through.

But since you were able to beat her, I guess she's not my favorite anymore.

The witch's eyes would glow a electric blue before she released a blast of magical pressure so intense, it began to pull all things toward it. The cave itself seemed to get smaller once the blast was fired.

XIII. Did you like that? I got that power from a witch who controlled pressure..

After the blast, the witch would wipe her mouth as if she just drank something. She then placed her hand on her hips as she witnessed Leia take the blow head on, and she was still breathing. She was persistent. No matter. She would fade out of existence and fade back standing above the water.

Also, I have the ability to possess anything or anyone whose power is lower than my own.

She smirked as her eyes began to glow a brilliant blue again.

Inanimate or not..

At this time she would sink into the water, possessing the entire thing. In essence, she became the entire body of water herself. She then began to intensify the water pressure around Leia's body, which would be at least several thousands lbs of pressure. The witch would play no games. She saw what Leia was capable of, and knew she had a dangerous potential...so she wanted to use it for herself.

XIV. AAAGHUGH

The witch released a violent cry of pain that would echo throughout the entire body of water. She was indeed technically everywhere within the waters, so Leia's plan did indeed work.

The witch would "spit" Leia from inside of the giant body of water, hopefully having her crash into some damaging landform. The witch would pull herself from the waters slowly in her regular form, damage from Leia's attack apparent and what ever.

You damned, Shibusen dog...

She held her hand out and the Staff of the Light Witch Katherine would manifest in her hand. It was glowing with an intense light, just like before. That's when she made a manical smile, holding it towards Leia. From the staff, a blinding light released from it, incinerating anything that got bathed in its glow. Just like before.

XV. Once the light faded, Phantisma would look around the Cavern. It seemed that Leia was rightfully purged like she hoped she would have been. She laughed, holding the staff over her shoulder.

Oh poo, I guess I over did it.

Her laugh was interrupted however, as she could feel Leia's death soul taking its effects. It felt like all her energy was leaving her and she was dying slowly.

Serves her right. That little bitch..

XVI. The witch seemed to be unprepared, not paying any attention to Leia at all at the moment. She was simply walking about the cavern, toward the body of water so she can return to wince she came. However, when Leia attacked, she wouldn't see the results she craved.

Rather when she attempted to blind side the witch, what came to her defense was one of her tails. It sprang into action, blocking Leia's strike with what relative ease. The collision would cause magical blue sparks to curl about from the clashing items.

I figured I wouldn't be done with you just yet, hm?

The witch would look up, holding the staff of the Light Witch, Katherine. The remainder of Phantisma's tails would spring into action, grabbing Leia's appendages. They wrapped them around her similar to a mummy. Her magical energies fluctuated throughout Leia, and would possess her weapon body; this allowed her to temporarily suppress it.

This time, why don't you stay down?

The witch began to charge up a ferocious amount of magical power in her staff. It glowed the color spectrum violently. In the next moment, she would attack Leia disabled body directly, smashing her with the built up power.

XVII. As Phantisma watched Leia take the strike full on, her face would light up. Her she cracked a maniacal smile that only a witch could don, as a chuckle followed close behind.

Once Leia ceased her crashing journey, the cocky witch would speed over to her down and out position, standing over Leia's body within the instant; she was abusing her light speed travel abilities.

She held her staff toward Leia's body. It began to glow with great magnitude.

You'll make a great addition to my collection..

After her words, she would fire a concentrated blast of magical power. It would no doubt erradicate Leia...well, what was left anyway.

XVIII. The two attacks would go off at the same time. Leia's attack however being the more powerful out of the two of them. Their combined magnificent power called for a horrific cataclysm of magical epic proportions.

The entire massive cavern was leveled. The arctic tundra crushing under the magical might of the powers. The dusk ninjas and Shibusen students would undoubtedly feel the rampaging power.

Once the smoke cleared, Phantisma was down and beaten. Her body was bruised and she was lying amongst the frozen rubble face down. She had regained what little bit of consciousness she had left and used it to push herself into a push up position. She began to look around for what had become of Leia. The witch's tails were down and dirty. She began to heal herself by using her magical prowess.

XIX. The witch wouldn't notice until it was too late. Her head would pop right off but instead of her gushing out blood, she would simply begin to glow a bright blue. She would glow bright before she became a small blue orb that had several tails and looked ghastly and ghost like.

Title: This Is The Way...

I. Much to Magenta's dismay, the two of them would run into something much worse than "harmful" monsters. As the two of them progressed, they would find themselves in what would look like a mechanical war grounds. Their would be scattered gears, shredded body parts of various creatures, and scraps of metal all about the immediate area- what would look like blood, varying in colors of all types, dripped from the ceiling and painted and splotched the grounds.

The very atmosphere of the interior of the Eternalism Hill, which was really an enormous mystical clock tower, was plagued by the obvious abundance of death and destruction- the intensity of which was probably the cause for Magenta's unease.

The trail of death lead, not up the stair case, but past it. In that distance, very feint whispers of conflict could be heard- they obviously were not alone in this place.

II. Although brave, choosing to walking down the dark corridor may not have been the best route. As they continued walking into the darkness, they would only see more an more destroyed pieces of armor and remains of different kind of monsters. The sound of battle in the distance soon came all the more distinct- it began to sound more like a massacre.

Multiple blood girdling screams of monsters soon began to rip through the air, accompanied by the vicious revving of mechanical titans.

The dark corridor lead into a broad, glorious room with a giant door on the other side, decorated with gears turning and churning one another, multiple flying clocks flowing through the air, and other mechanical paraphernalia; its walls, however, were coated with blood.

In the immediate distance, they would come across a pack of wounded Gnolls. They were about 6 of them, 3 of them critically injured- it seemed like they were the losers of the battle that Nova and Magenta heard earlier. The healthier tended to wounded, until they spotted the witchlings- despite their damages, Gnolls are known as one of the more dangerous monsters of the Dusk, often found in areas surrounded by nature. What was important enough to bring them here?

III. The three Gnolls who were able, immediately made their way to their feet the instant Magenta began to delve in the magical arts- to their surprise however, she was trying to protect them. The trio looked among each other, making sure that their confusion was mutual.

"..!"

They collectively shrieked in a language native to their race, disappearing from sight. In the next instant, they reappeared to the right, left, and behind of Nova and Magenta. In their hands, a violent collection of frozen blue magical energies began to illuminate the immediate area. Using their immense speed, they had pre-charged, three blizzara spells, and had released them the instant Nova and Mangenta caught eye of them. Gnolls, seasoned warriors, were all to familiar with the protection spell that nullified physical combat-however, they knew also how the spell made the caster susceptible to magical non-physical strikes.

The ferocious storm of freezing mystical power would erupt in a snow storm that cursed the immediate area- a frozen tundra replaced the golden room they original stood in. Maybe choosing to come to this place wasn't the best idea for two fresh witchlings.

IV. Due to their weakened state, the Gnolls were caught by the great gale winds manifested from the sheer flaps of Magenta's winds. They wouldn't go far however, one of the Gnolls effectively jumped in front of his brethren, bashing the ground with his five pronged blade, the likes of which was accompanied by a sea blue aura, causing a family of sharp, tall, and deadly spikes of ice to surface. Several of them appeared in front of the three Gnolls, defending them from Magenta's blinding light and burning/healing blasts.

However, hundreds of them would have appeared around Nova and Magenta. Encircling and entrapping them in this make shift cage of icy death with no way out, the frozen spires began to release this frozen mist that would freeze the duo from the inside out at quite the rapid pace.

The Gnoll who casted this spell fell down to his knees. He had overestimated his ability in his wounded condition. The other two however vanished again, taking advantage of the fact that Nova and Magenta couldn't see them. Before that, they began to charge with this black and red aura- a dastardly energy to say the least.

V. To say the least, the Gnolls were not impressed. The giant ice glacier was simply a mere distraction so that the two who vanished could prepare for the coup'de grace. The other Gnoll, who had crumbled under his exhaustion from the ice spell, willingly sacrificed himself- these creatures weren't just strong, they were keen strategists.

Once Magenta summoned her massive monstrous arm, each of the Gnolls would have appeared on either side. With their five pronged blade glowing with rd and black magics, it became apparent they were planning to finish her off with a double Gnoll attack. Together, they learned that Magenta was the more passive one, and thus, it made heran easier target. Once she was out of the picture, they would have no issue overwhelming Nova after ward.

With damn near full speed, despite their injuries, they Gnolls went full throttle on Magenta. They packed enough power to crush any of her last defenses, should she so hastily create them. It was more like a blur than anything else. On the sidelines, the more critically wounded Gnolls and he exhausted one simply smirked and snickered.

VI. The Gnolls were bested. Nova's inferno, literally tearing the flesh and bone from their bodies and Magenta purging them from existence. Their screams filled the air as they were stricken down.

Soon, their souls would replace them. Each of them worth about 5 souls. If they were at full strength, they would have been worth more of course. Then again, if they were at full strength, Nova and Magenta wouldn't have made it this far.

---

In the distance, sounds of mechanical madness could be heard. Through the massive doorway, Magenta and Nova's journey would continue.

VII. Within the darkness of the mysterious doorway, the duo would continue to hear sounds of vicious combat. The floating clocks within this room began to fizz in and out of reality. Mechanical workings and what not all about this land seemed to be starting to malfunction.

VIII. As expected, the two blossoming witchlings braved the darkness and continued onward down the metaphorical rabbit hole. However, what they would find on the other side would be far from whimsical.

Once the ventured further through the doorway, they would be lead to a mechanical wasteland- a robot graveyard of sorts. Machina, once enormous and magnificent in creation and stature, now nothing more than hunks of scrap metal- mere husks of what used to be.

This depressing area seemed to stretch on for miles, with no door way in sight. The duo would have to wonder until they found a way out.

What's more, the sound of mechanical wailing could be faintly heard in an arbitrary direction- perhaps Magenta could locate it and possibly find a way out.

IX. Running through the mechanical wasteland, the two witchlings would run pass piles of damaged machinery. The pathway was even crowded with shrapnel and loads of metal parts. The road was getting worse, but the cry was getting stronger.

In time they would be able to see an old, gargantuan, seemingly tortured Machina in the distance. He was hunched over- his dark figure ominous in the lack of light that they traveled in.

The sorrowful cry strengthened the closer they ventured towards this metal titan.

X. The machina cried out in autonomous anguish. If one persisted, they would catch eye of a dark red glow emitting from the head of the beast. It was "waking up", and looking about its surroundings. It heard the noise from the conversing of the brave witchlings, but knew not of their intentions- it geared itself up for confrontation.

With a vicious revving sound, the enormous Machina clenched its opened fist, causing a monstrous force to bark down the massive halls of this clock tower. This specific machina was older than most had ever encountered- ancient writings and lost designs were sketched along the hide of this metal monument. His power, far exceeded their own.

However, the large monster stuttered in its rise to battle. It had been too badly damaged to fight at its full potential at this point. Before they arrived, it murdered legions and legions of monsters and other Machina who encroached upon its territory, creating the piles of metal carnage that surround the all of them. Regardless, the monster stood in a knelt down position- its massive right hand supporting its weight, while the left remained close to its chest. This creature was protecting something..

"..!!!"

With a vehement wale, the Machina ignored its damages and prepared for battle- knelt position and tattered condition, he wasn't going to be defeated.

XI. Try as it might, the Machina could not move to fight. The previous wounds inflicted upon it were proved to be too critical for it to carry on. It staggered in pain, and descended into its knelt position.

Its cries of agony no longer bearing the same sound of a resilient guardian, rather, it carried stories of sorrow in every note. The Machina's time nigh, and it knew that. The magical energy flowing through its veins allowed it to "feel", and the despair it felt from not being able to protect its treasure was all to great.

XII. The Machina's red glowing eye seemed to shine a bit brighter after hearing Magenta put her heart on her sleeve. If Nova payed attention, she could possibly see the change in radiance of the magical energies leaving its body- they began to glow brighter and stronger.

The creature found selfish refuge in Magenta's tears. It felt her sincerity and her want to protect, not only him, but all things. That notion opened the metaphorical will of the automaton, and it used its final seconds to let Magenta to know that.

The Machina rose from its position, causing a quake of the earth below. It reached its hands down and opened its palm, revealing what it has been protecting this entire time. It was a gear. It looked ordinary but bore great magical promise. It wanted Magenta to take it, as a sign of respect and trust.

Title: In tune with the Earth

I. The shrine would yield no more energy to Alex, and if he made another attempt at absorption, he would find his body paralysed, and chakra network completely shut down. For Alex, there would be no enlightenment found here, only death.

II. The mortal had not heeded the subtle warning to leave. Whatever his reason for remaining in the shrine, he would come to regret staying. Two other humanoids hung just outside the temple. Nasty black winged creatures, rotten to the core. If they were foolish enough to cross the boundary, they would become trapped like the boy.

III. The two semi-circles rose high into the air above the boy and would converge to become whole again. Once the circle was reformed, a torrent of white sand would pour from the center.

IV. The sand crashed to the ground and spilled outward in all directions like a fast moving tidal wave. A lot of the sand was kicked up into the air, creating dense clouds that spread out as well, attempting to envelop the boy.
