Luna and Karol: "Lightning Monarchs." *They shouted with echoing voices.*
Tyson: *He looked around.* (The area hasn't darkened? Does this mean this Hi-Ougi is a passive one?) *He frowned in thought.* "I hate passive techniques."
*Luna and Karol stepped away from each other and looked at the butterflies in shock.*
Luna: "Kool." *She grunted to herself.*
Nathan: (Luna can Hi-Ougi with Karol now?) *He thought to himself in disappointment.*
Karol: "This.. Is the first time I'm seeing this-" *His face lit up as one of the butterflies flapped past his face.*
Luna: *She frowned in determination.* "My energy is restored, aye!"
Karol: "Arh hah." *He nodded his head like a child and started to dance, causing a black-purplish glyph to expand from his feet.*
Luna: "Let's do this!" *She grunted and started to run towards Tyson, flicking electricity from her fingers.*
Tyson: *He looked surprised at Luna.* "Futile."
Luna: "Seraphic Volt." *She shot an arrow made of lightning at Tyson, causing it to warp around him.*
Tyson: "FLURRY-"
Luna: *She leapt directly in front of Tyson and enthusiastically pulled the string back, watching an arrow of wind shine like a full moon.* "Lunar Gale."
Karol: (Salsa... Just like before-) *He thought to himself in recollection, as if he was trying to remember something.* "Sword of arts, this sword is the start-"
Tyson: *He quickly tilted his head to the side and watched his skin burn, as Luna's arrow shot past his face.* (Hot!-)
Karol: *He ran one hand up his face and through his hair, as he continued to dance with a unique style.* "Rot and decay, haste and make no delay-"
Luna: *She awkwardly leant forward and accidentally head-butted Tyson's stomach.* "Eww-"
Tyson: *He frowned with a twitching eye and cupped both his hands above his head, readying to punch Luna directly in her face.* (Annoying!)
Karol: *He squealed with an echo and watched swirls of darkness spiral around themselves in the air above him.* "Nafan!"
Tyson: "Shadiatons?!" *He whispered to himself in shock, glancing at Karol.*
Karol: *He watched the darkness suddenly solidify into five black swords.* "ROTTING SWORD" *He squealed and threw his arms forward in a dancer-like manner, blasting them towards Tyson.*
Luna: *She tried to cartwheel to the side and fell face-first into the ground.* "Fail!"
Tyson: *He faced Karol with a frown and focused, watching three of the swords burst into shadow.* "Fufufu, gone before it touched me-"
*Tyson watched one of the swords curve towards Luna and the other over his shoulder.*
Tyson: "You all merely attack yourselves-"
Luna: "Shit!-" *She quickly closed her eyes and looked away, bracing herself for pain.*
*Sparks splintered away from Luna, causing her to slowly open her eyes.*
Luna: (Was it them butterflies?) *She looked back and noticed Nathan standing over her, tightly holding onto a black sword.*
Tyson: "How-?" *He looked behind him, noticing blood stains from where Nathan was lying.* (He must have flashstepped-)
Karol: "Nafan!"
Nathan: *He stood in a battle-ready pose, pretending not to be interested in the black sword.* "Us men from The Rostical Guild, will never give up!"
Karol: "Nee hee."
Luna: *She stood up and stood next to Nathan.* "Everythin' we use keeps getting warped or somethin'." *She grunted so only Nathan could hear.*
Nathan: *He shook his head.* "I noticed your arrows always scrape past his face when he's not looking." *He mumbled to Luna with his deep voice.*
Luna: "So, he has a better control of warpin' shit if he can see it?"
Nathan: "Yeah." *He spoke with a smile.*
Luna: "Kool-" *She glanced at Karol.* "Speed us up! We're gonna take him on."
Tyson: "Fufufu. You scum may or may not have noticed, but us Black Brigade all have a heightened speed to our flashsteps. Even if I were to stop relying on my ability, you can never catch me."
Nathan: (He's right.)
Karol: *He started to dance, causing a green sigil-like glyph to spiral from his feet.* "Sacred dance, Speed Up."
*A swirl of green whooshed up Nathan and Luna from their feet, giving them confident smirks.*
Luna: "Aight-" *She grunted and bent her knees, readying herself.*
Nathan: "Don't hesitate-" *He stepped forward and flashstepped directly in front of Tyson.*
Tyson: *He looked at Nathan with widening eyes.* (Fast!-)
Nathan: "Double Slash." *He swayed to the side and watched a blood dyed red, shadow-like streak blur from the sword, as he slashed twice across Tyson's neck.*
Tyson: *He leant back with concentration, causing the sword to closely bend around his neck.* (That was close!-)
Luna: *She stared at Tyson's back and aimed for the back of his head.* "Seraphic Volt."
*Luna shot an arrow made of lightning at incredible speeds, watching it warp around Tyson's shoulder.*
Tyson: (I can feel your Neurons!) *He smirked at the bright lightning and swayed his body, as if he was guiding Luna's arrow towards Nathan.*
Luna: (How?! He wasn't lookin'!-)
Tyson: "There!-" *He shouted and noticed Nathan face-to-face to him, as the arrow shot into the distance where Nathan stood.*
Karol: *He continued to dance on the green sigil-like glyph.* (You kan do it, Nafan! Loona!)
Tyson: *He leant back slightly, unintentionally emphasising his shock.* (How does he keep flashstepping like this?!)
Nathan: "Double Slash." *He sliced upwards at blinding speeds, cutting Tyson's chin.*
Tyson: *He stumbled back, as beads of blood flicked in the same direction as Nathan's swing.* "Dirty la-" *An arrow which shined like a full moon shot into the back of his leg, causing him to shout in pain.*
Luna: "Finally got ya!"
Nathan: *He flashsided several feet back and cut the air in front of him, slicing a blood dyed blur towards Tyson.* "Air Slash."
Tyson: *He quickly focused on the air slash, causing it to warp and break before it touched him.* (Another close one-)
Luna: "Lunar Gale." *She shouted and shot another arrow which shined like a full moon at Tyson.*
Tyson: *He leant up with a limp and flashstepped upwards, causing the arrow to shoot towards Nathan.* "FLURRY STYX"
*Swirls of wind wrapped themselves around Tyson, as it gave him an unnatural swirl in the air.*
Luna: "Quit movin'!" *She looked up with a grunt, watching Tyson spiral in the air.*
Tyson: "FLORIAN BOMBER" *He suddenly crashed towards the ground and a pulse of scorching wind whacked Nathan and Luna away from him.*
Luna: "Shit!-"
Nathan: "Argh-"
Karol: *He listened to the sounds of branches snapping.* (I felt that along the ground... Or branch.)
Nathan: *He gritted his teeth, showing blood in them and he stood back up, holding onto the sword.* "Air-"
*Nathan raised the sword and it suddenly puffed away into shadow-like smoke.*
Nathan: "The sword?"
Luna: *She stopped sliding on her side and grunted in pain, as she lifted her arm to find a painful graze.* "Shit-"
Tyson: *He stood up and watched the tears in his leather restore itself.* (I was expecting Synthoss to be here now. If this battle continues for any longer, they will die before she gets the satisfaction of seeing it for herself.)
Karol: "Nafan!" *He danced on a purplish-black glyph, as swords materialised out of spiral of darkness above him.* "ROTTING SWORD"
*Karol waved his hands up and dropped them while dancing, shooting two black swords towards Nathan.*
Nathan: *He stood up straight, slightly buckling his knees and caught the swords in each hand.* "I think it's time to finish this."
Luna: *She looked at Karol and nodded her head.* ('Bout time.) *She thought to herself with growing excitement, as she watched the lightning butterflies form a pentagra
m around Tyson.*
Nathan: "Luna, go for his legs, we need him to stop-"
*A black glyph expanded around Tyson and ribbon-like darkness shot up, violently wrapping themselves around him.*
Nathan: "What?!"
Luna: "Aye?"
Karol: *He continued to dance on the purplish-black glyph, but with a different style, causing its patterns to change.* "Feel the corruption, ignite the eruption, negate the hate, SERVANT'S GATE"
*Karol shouted with an echoing voice, causing the ribbons to tighten their grip on Tyson.*
Luna: "Rostickal!"
Nathan: "Alright!" *He spread his legs and focused.*
Luna: "Karol, now!"
Karol: "Yheah!"
Nathan: (Now?)
Luna and Karol: "Lightning Monarchs." *They shouted at the same time and all the butterflies imploded before exploding into lines of thick lightning.*
Tyson: *He tried to pull his arms up and suddenly stopped, as the lightning sparked all around him.* (What is this?! I'm trapped!)
Luna and Karol: "Be free!" *Their words caused the lightning to implode around Tyson, before one massively thick stream of lightning shot up from the ground and into the sky.*
Nathan: *He squinted his eyes, as the lightning burnt into the upper branches, leaving trails of burning leaves.* (Whoa. Their Hi-Ougi had been flapping mindlessly this entire time? Did they need to be in a certain position to work?)
Luna: "Gah-" *She dropped to her knees and her lightning bow sparked into nothing, dimming the area around her.* "I suddenly feel drained?"
Karol: "Eek-" *He dropped to all fours, causing sweat to rain off his face.* (It took our Neurons when it struck, not when we use it?)
Tyson: *He stood trapped inside the lightning, watching his leather burn into his skin.* "No!-"
Nathan: *He lowered the swords.* "His Neurons-" *He ignored the burning leaves which rained around Tyson's electrifying cage.* "It's getting weaker."
Luna: "Aye? We do it?" *She panted and inhaled deeply, slowly exhaling through her mouth.*
Tyson: *He closed his eyes, as his skin burnt off his face.* (I was careless about their Hi-Ougi..) *He recollected the beetle's image.* (I have no choice but to use its power now.)
*The lightning's static and quick movement suddenly halted, catching the guild's attention.*
Nathan: "The lightning?" *He mumbled to himself and looked at Luna and Karol.* "Is this meant to happen? I'm not sure if this is the first time you two used this, but it should come naturally to you."
Luna: "Nah, it feels like it should just burn away with him, aye."
Tyson: (Time to use the strongest Rostical my affinity can use...) *A strange swirl of wind blew around the area, rustling the leaves as it came into contact.*
Karol: (I'm out of Neurons..)
Luna: (Shit, I can't move, aye.. Destiny, you there?)
Nathan: (Something doesn't feel right.) *He raised the swords and stood in a battle-ready pose.*
*An enormous fluoro green glyph expanded around Tyson, which could be seen in the lightning.*
Tyson: "O' wavering winds, in the name of the almighty storms, tempest trap and conceal, Neurons draw, Astragons repel, two corners meet and combine, give me impenetrable hope, as one with nature and as one with power, swift might, at my command, rebirth your power through this mortal vessel, shroud me in your everlasting power!-"
*A gust of wind pulsed all the lightning into nothing, blowing the leaves, ash and bark away.*
Nathan: *He crossed the sword in front of his face, blocking the debris blown at him.* "It sounded distorted in the lightning, but that was a long incantation."
Tyson: "FLORIAN DRIVER" *He uttered on his breath and the green glyph suddenly disappeared, leaving behind the fading sounds of howling wind.*
Luna: "Wat's happenin'?"
Karol: "Florwian Driver?" *He spoke to himself in shock.* "One of the four elemental powers."
Luna: "Huh? Is it like the strongest one or somethin'?" *She spoke with a wheeze and leant up.*
Nathan: (As long as it doesn't cut us, we should be fine.) *He braced himself and stood there, watching Tyson stand in a circle of charcoal.*
Tyson: *He carefully raised his arm and smiled.* "No matter what you do, I won't be touched again."
Luna: "Wateva!-" *She pulled an electric string back and released her finger, shooting an arrow made of lightning at Tyson.* "Seraphic Volt."
Tyson: *He casually stood on the spot and watched the lightning arrow shoot towards his face.* "Remember my words-"
*The lightning violently and directly hit in Tyson's face, causing Luna to smirk.*
Luna: "Finally-"
*The lightning stringed and sparked around Tyson, before splintering into nothing.*
Luna: "Wat?!" *She grunted on her breath.*
Nathan: (It was a direct hit!) *He thought to himself in shock.*
Tyson: "Florian's Arm." *He carefully swayed to the side and a howling blizzard-like wave of cold air froze the air towards Luna.*
Karol: "Loona!" *He started to dance, causing a green sigil-like glyph to spiral underneath her.*
Luna: *She looked down and quickly ran with heightened speed, avoiding the blizzard.* "Wat the fuck?" *She grunted, watching droplets of frost sparkle on the blowing leaves behind her.*
Nathan: *He flashstepped in front of Tyson and violently rammed the sword towards his chest.* "Harh!"
*The black sword suddenly shattered before it touched Tyson's body and the shattered parts swirled around Tyson, before puffing into shadow-like smoke.*
Nathan: "What-?"
Tyson: *He carefully pushed his arm towards Nathan.* "Florian's Hand."
*Nathan suddenly gagged and was lifted off his feet, as a howling breeze ripped his clothes.*
Nathan: (I can't breathe!) *He dropped the other sword and opened his mouth, trying to gasp for air.*
Tyson: *He watched Nathan squirm with an emotionless face.* (There was a reason why this Rostical was deemed forbidden.. With such a powerful ability, its Rasticsplash only effects the user if done incorrectly.)
Luna: "Let go of him!" *She pulled the string back and aimed an arrow which shined like a full moon.* "Lunar Gale."
*Luna shouted and released the string, blasting the arrow in between Tyson and Nathan, disrupting the air-like hold, causing Nathan to drop to the ground.*
Nathan: "Kagh-" *He placed both hands around his neck and took deep breaths.* (Damn it all... Rostical!) *He frowned with anger and quickly stood up, flashstepping away from Tyson and in front of Karol.*
