After having came back for what should have had her gone only a second in Hell's time, Hikaru had left Asura and Gaserlake in the stands, and now appeared on the arena floor in a flurry of golden flames. But for some reason, the flames held no magic signature, and neither did Hikaru. Not at the moment. To any other magic user, she would appear mortal.
Her gazed focused on the side of the arena across from her, Hikaru crossed her arms and waited. For once, Hikaru seemed to be calm, and not so bent on destroying her opponent. After all, she only needed to win. No-... that was wrong. She HAD to win. Not just to escape Hell, but to stop Plex. Asura had said it was alive? And was going to kill Koty? Not if she could help it.
"Whenever you're ready!" Hikaru called out to C2323.
-
C2323 looked at Hikaru, his cyborg eyes emotionless. He was looking her over... Trying to decide her weaknesses and strengths. And he knew what to do to start this match. In fact, it wasn't long before he'd worked out eight ways to end the battle without making a move right then and there.
"Odd, isn't it?" C2323 spoke up, "I remember our past battles... And I wasn't even the one fighting them."
There was bitterness in his voice. The cyborg raised his sage arm and a white flame enveloped it while an electric charge began to form on his cyborg arm. He clapped his hands together and in an instant, the two attacks combined and a giant ball of white energy charged with electricity began to charge towards Hikaru.
-
Hikaru flicked her hand, and what was left of the arena floor rose up in a wall of Stone Fire against the attack. But around the Stone Fire, was an encasing of Revelation magic, Taking that chance to jump into the air, Hikaru floated above the arena."Are you really still caught up in that?" Hikaru looked skeptic. "You may not be my brother, but it was not K2323 that fought me in the Outerverse this last time and almost won. Nor was it K2323 who helped with the Second Sage War and attempted to lead the Third. Those were you, not my brother. And everything after that? You again. Those actions are your own, and even if you did them thinking you were another, they continue to stay yours and only yours. Not K2323s."
-
C2323 looked up to Hikaru, shaking his head. "No... I was living a lie that was created for me then. The truth is, I'm a monster. I'm a killer... Because that's what I was meant to be. I am not just your brother's cyborg clone... I am also your brother's enemy."
As soon as the white charged ball hit the wall, flashes of some dark, yellow energy appeared within the white briefly. The energy was being flatted against the wall like a pancake. It was stretching itself across the entire form of the wall... And trying to break down the molecules of the wall and convert them. This wall was being changed. It was being transformed into energy.
-
Meanwhile, at the stands, before the match started, Gaserlake went to one of the pudding vendors. "I'll take all of them," he said.
"That'll cost you," the vendor replied back.
"No it won't! It's Hell, here! I get shit for free!"
"Alright! Fine!" the vendor grudgingly said and gave all of the pudding he had to Gaserlake. Gaserlake then took a seat. A demon, next to Gaser, commented on the absurd amount of pudding Gaserlake had. Gaserlake told him the story with the vendor.
"You've got all of that for free?" the demon asked in disbelief.
"Yep."
"And you like that kind of stuff? Do you know what that shit tastes like?"
"Mhm. It tastes like dead people."
"...Okay, then," the demon replied in awkwardness and edged away from Gaserlake, who started to eat away at the pudding as he watched the match start. He gave a satisfied sound. "Mmmmm. Rotten and infected meat."
-
OOC: ROFL!
-
The wall held strong against the yellowed-white energy. Reinforced with Revelation magic, the molecules of the stone fire wall just flat out refused to convert. As the Stone Fire was still solidified fire, and already energy, add the Revelation magic to it, and you had two forces of energy fighting one. Which would you say would win? In this case, The Revelation magic encased stone fire.
Fighting back against the yellowed-white energy, the Stone Fire began to consume the attacking energy, and in result petrify it to stone; burning stone. The Revelation magic, then seeped through the stone into the yellow-white energy and began to churn it, mixing in and solidifying it to a thick hardened marble-like sphere.
The Stone Fire began to crack and break, falling into chunks as it broke off piece by piece, from the sphere, a brilliant electric-blue glow coming from it. The sphere then fell and shattered into the ground, instantly spreading across the ground of the arena and up the sides around it, forming a sphere around the arena its self, of the same substance the solidified-marbled-energy-sphere once was. Keeping the electric-blue glow, the entire inside of the arena became strongly magnetized to the point any type of metal would be forced around like a pinball or glued to the side of the wall..
Hikaru continued to float in the air, her eyes locked onto C2323s, "Only if you choose to be," she simply stated, before disappearing. At her disappearance, a darkened red mist began to fill the inside of the sphere, all around the arena.
-
"Interesting... Some kind of magnet effect," C2323 noted, feeling his form slowly being lifted into the air. "Coat!"
At that, his cyborg arm began to be covered by skin, the metal breaking down into their nanite forms. With that taken care of, C2323 glanced up at the red mist filling the arena and merely laughed as more of his yellowish energy appeared and began to coat the red mist to convert it.... The effects were almost immediate.
He began to sense for Hikaru's magic signature, grabbed ahold of it, and began to forcefully teleport her... Right inside a metal casing he'd just created.
-
Hikaru hadn't had a magic signature since long before the match back in The Records of Time. Even when she cast magic. If one were to be around, they would sense nothing. Because of that, any spells in attempt to locate it, would fail, miserably.
The mist did not convert. Instead the red mist overtook and merged with the yellow energy and became an orange energy that dispersed. When it was gone, the encasing of the arena, the soldified-marbled-energy began to cast beams of life from its surface, from one end to the other till the whole dome was a alight. Then from the light, shapes began to emerge, shapes resembling none other than C2 himself. The clone had clones.
Only, the race of the clones, was different. Instead of sage, every image of C2 was the same as the common enemy both opponents of the match shared. Aralang.
From atop the arena, outside of the dome, Hikaru appeared floating in the air above it, strings of magic flowed from her hands to the dome, as she was in control of it all.
With one flick of her hand, the strings were cut, and the light from inside the arena did one last effect. It pulled from the mind of C2 the illusion of the place of his creation and materialized it within the dome.
Now, C2 would have to face his worst enemy in himself, as well as do so in the place he most hated.
The dome was solid to those inside looking out. Cut off from the outside of the arena. But for the ones outside it, everything inside could be seen.
-
Gaserlake stopped eating his pudding when he saw the dome and what was in it, with interest. He smiled. He knew where she was going. He resumed eating his pudding after several moments.
-
"YEAH! Go Mistress Hikaru!" Inari shouted from the seat behind Gaserlake, after just appearing moments ago. Jumping up she dropped an ice-cream cone she had been holding in that hand atop his head. After that, Inari sat back down. "Glad I made it, I almost missed the action." She turned to the demons sitting by her and grinned. The demons didn't look amused. "That's my Teacher down there!"
-
Gaserlake stopped what he was doing and reached for the ice-cream cone and took it off his head. He then turned around and gave Inari the death glare.
-
Inari squealed with fear as she pointed at him shakily. "I-i-it's you! Faser, no, tas-, no... Bastardlake!" Inari inched back in her chair and stammered. "W-w-what are you doing here?" She then grew a bit braver, "YOU'RE NOT GETTING MISTRESS HIKARU!"
"You sure do attract the kids," Asura laughed from her seat.
-
Gaserlake laughed. Some manic is evident, but mostly otherwise. "It's Hell, here. You know that, right? You know what's gonna happen don't you?" He laughed again, this time completely manic.
-
"You're gonna kill me?" Inari guessed. Inari had good reason to guess such. She hadn't seen him since her and Echo had left to help Asura find the contract. At that time they were as in trouble as Hikaru was. So at this point, Inari didn't know what was going to happen. "But Mistress Hikaru got away! And so will I!"
The two demons beside Inari finally fed up and annoyed by her, grabbed Inari and threw her over the seats into Gaserlake's lap, then took to fighting over her seat for more leg room. That fight disrupted more demons above them, and around them, and soon more demons were fighting each other, and a mosh pit was started in the stands. Blood and demon gust flew everywhere, and a severed head flew passed Asura, who merely wiped her shoulder off.
-
Gaserlake laughed more. "Nah. Not really." He lifted Inari off of his lap. When the fight started, Gaserlake joined in. A lot bodies and body parts were flying through the air like they were shot off from a cannon.
-
C2323 seemed to be in an Aralang lab all too familiar to himself facing the damned Aralangs who had created him. Had everything that had happened after this moment been a dream? Had he never left this lab? Had he only been created moments ago, everything else a mere dream?
He was a clone. Not only that, but he was also Zirridian. He was Zirridian and a K2323 clone in one. And he was a cyborg. And it was all because of those Aralangs before him that he was so weak... No! He was strong -- embedded with some of the strongest power of all!
But these Aralangs... They looked like him... No. This was not real. The Aralangs before him were part of some spell. What was real was the tournament. But these C2323langs sure looked real. He had to fight them, he supposed, to get to Hikaru... She seemed to be controlling them.
Wait. That was it. C2323 began to create a magic displacement field around the C2323langs. That would block the magical connection between Hikaru and the C2323langs, forcing them to cease to exist. He had to keep fighting. He would not fall. He would win...
-
Hikaru had no control however, as when she had cut the strings, she had relinquished all control. What was really spawning the Aralang C2s, was the light that encased the arena. As long as the light was there, the copies would keep spawning. And spawn, they did, first ten, then fifty, one hundred, thousand, soon millions had materialized all around C2323. The scenery within the domed arena changed as it pulled from C2323s mind the memories and re-enacted his life, starting with his creation.
-
C2323 kept a calm mind, relying on his cyborg thinking. Logic. Formulate a plan... What to do? After surveying the scene for a bit, C2323 decided his next course of action. He sent strings of data to the cyborg parts of each of the C2323langs which would effectively cause the nanites within their bodies to block organs from functioning. The cyborgs wouldn't even be able to move and would all die instantly, C2323 himself being the only one left.
As the C2323langs began to die, C2323 began to summon the magic within his soul. He used it to create a sort of invisible ball of magic under him. He was pushing himself upwards into the air. A few seconds later, he shot up into the air. Under him, the magic which was repelling him from the ground became visible. He was now standing on his magic. The magic -- which appeared to be simply red energies of some kind -- had taken the shape of a dragon.
The magic dragon which C2323 was standing on began to fly into the air... Right towards Hikaru.
-
Before the C2323 could strike, Hikaru had disappeared and the the dome beneath began to shatter. Because the Aralang C2s were not real, and merely magical holograms spawned by the light from within the spell of the dome, they had not died, and had instead edged closer and closer towards the real C2323. When the dome had started to shatter, the copies all tackled him, and the whole arena combusted in a large explosion of the electric-blue energy. The magnetism of the energy being released throughout the arena and into the spectator stands as well.
Beneath where the arena used to be, a dark olive-tinted miasma began to seep out through the cracks in the ground of Hell.
-
The destruction had been massive and powerful. The minute the force of the explosion began to push into the barriers around the arena, the defensive magics had fought back. They failed, the power of the Sage 3 member's attack spreading throughout the arena. But Hikaru was not the only one causing an explosion...
C2323 had responded to the C2323langs with his own explosion at the same moment, creating a ball of the yellow energy around him, igniting it to explode as the C2323langs collided with it. The force of a Sage Three and a Sage Three clone's explosions, needless to say, would be uncontrollable. All of Mortality's Planes was destroyed. All of it.
There had been those who made sure those in the stands weren't hurt. Akylos, who'd just teleported in, did his best at creating a barrier to protect those within the section of the arena he sat in. He was not alone. Lucifer even seemed to have created a barrier around some to protect them. Still, the destruction was incredible.
As the smoke cleared, the scene was an interesting one. Those present were now in the natural surroundings of hell... The original surroundings of hell. It was not a torture pit. It was as it had been before the devil came to hell.. It was... Water. An ocean.
There they were. Thousands of specters, two contestants, and hundreds of staff members for this massive tournament were now all in the middle of an ocean. C2323, disoriented, felt his head going under. He was in pain. He managed to force himself up ontop of the water where he stood, surveying the scene before him. Had he and Hikaru done this? It didn't surprise him.
Naturally, the crowd was screaming in fear. Some tried to keep order. They failed. Then, there were mummers, and everyone began to look up into the sky. C2323 looked up too. There, he saw it in the distance and quite high above. A floating island was there, housing a city of some sorts. Where were they? Had this been here all along?
Then, there was silence again. The devil had appeared in the sky, captivating everyone. The look on his face was one of pure amazement... And of pure shock. He said nothing. However; within moments, everyone but C2323, Hikaru, and Lucifer had vanished. The others were all back at Lucifer's palace where they'd be watching the battle from a far. That which was formerly Mortality's Planes was now a giant battleground ocean.

-
Through the force of the blast even Hikaru had been knocked clear into the ocean, and she had been high above the arena when it had happened. Now as she clambered to the surface, Hikaru stood atop the water, able to observe the area in its entirety. Just where the hell was this? She knew it had to be Hell, but an ocean? Hikaru had always assumed it was some bottomless pit or darkened void beneath Hell. Never did she picture it being something so peculiar. And what was with that city?
"So are you going to explain or just spectate?" Hikaru questioned to Lucifer once she had noticed him. Winds began to pick up around her as her clothes were blown dry and she awaited the answer, all the while keeping her guard up for in case C2323 decided to take advantage and attack.
-
C2323 felt the breeze Hikaru had generated, letting it wash over him. For a moment, he felt... Relieved from the feeling of the wind. He quickly locked this emotion away. There wasn't time for feelings, not now. They made him weak.
"Yes, Lucifer," C2323 demanded, not taking advantage of the time, "Tell us. Now."
"No," Lucifer replied simply. "No, you'll figure it out if I know either of you well enough."
C2323 growled and began to charge a ball of energy in his hand, but before he could do anything, Lucifer had vanished. C2323 merely sighed, turning his attention back to Hikaru. "Well, let's get this over with."

-
Hikaru nodded. "I didn't think he'd provide answers. Whatever the mystery of this place is, it will have to be figured out later. For now.." Hikaru held her right hand out to the sea around her, the sea rising in the direction her hand was pointing. "Know this, I entered this tournament not really caring if I win or lose. But due to recent news, I will not and cannot afford to lose." She then held her left hand out as well, the sea doing the same on both sides.
"I'm sorry, but you won't pass this match." That declared, Hikaru brought both her hands together, the water following her movements as it began to shape its self into blush flames, eventually taking the form of Water Fire. The flames, once cast, spread like a wild fire across the ocean until the half that surrounded Hikaru was an inferno of blue. Then pulling her hands back, Hikaru gave them both one flick, and the sea of fire rose high into the sky and crashed down, sending wave after wave of it at C2323.
-
C2323, having seen what she was doing, had been quick to respond by creating massive amounts of heat within his hands, channeling it around the ball of energy he'd created at sight of Lucifer. Now, his hand was basically a ball of smoke with tints of color underneath the layers. He drew back his hand and threw the ball like a baseball...
The ball of heat met the waves of Waterfire, spreading out to cover the entire mass of the waterfire and to evaporate it. It was using the Water Fire against itself. The result? As smoke began to rise from Hikaru's side of the field, a thick layer of heat and smoke covered their heads. It began to rain fire. Not water fire, just fire.
But that wasn't C2323's attack. Hikaru could defeat water fire any day of the week. C2323 grinned as the firerain began to gather in one area nearby C2323 where... It began to be laced with Genesis. The wind, at the same time, began to pick up. Vortexes were forming made of Genesis Fire.
-
The Genesis flamed vortex met its match to a quickly spawned vortex of Revelation flames. But encased into the Revelation flames was Genesis magic as well, which when mixed created a concoction of immeasurable power that easily wiped away C2323s vortex. The mixed vortex then went on, making its path through the water, which was attracted to it, adding to the size of the vortex. By the time the vortex of mixed magical flames was on C2323s side of the field, it had become surrounded by water which mixed with the magic as well, resulting in a near-planet-sized swirling water and fire vortex of Revelation and Genesis magic. And it was headed in C2323s direction, picking up more water and becoming even larger as it went.
Hikaru took this time to disappear, in her stead a spell circle appeared painted in gold. The rings of the circle expanded to encompass the whole never-ending oceanic field. Except, this spell circle was different. Where the runes of the could should have been, there was another circle. A circle of circles within the one circle. And the runes of the secondary circles? More circles. And in those? Even more circles. An infinite number of spell circles encompassed the ocean.
Above that circle, another circle appeared of the same type to encompass the sky. With one on top, and one on bottom. The entire domain was encompassed. Its effect? Out of each circle, down to the tiniest one, beams of god fire shot through the whole domain, shaking the area and churning the remaining water of the ocean into a rushing torrent of destruction from god fire.
-
Protect me.
A bubble of Twilight Energy surrounded C2323 as the massive attacks swept down on him. It wasn't even close to being enough. He could see his bubble being crushed. He knew that if he didn't do something quick, he wasn't going to get very far... So he did do something. He opened portals above and below him to absorb the effects of Hikaru's spell circles.
The massive vortex fell into the portal below it as the spell circles found their attacks also joining the vortex in being taken away... The thing? C2323, on the spot, had made the portal a trans-dimensional portal. Trans-dimensional portals like that didn't cross to other charges. That meant that it could have only gone to one place....
As the disaster that was Hikaru's attack cleared, the ocean was violent. C2323 found himself rising with the massive waves as he stayed on top of that water. The spell circles themselves had been enveloped whole, along with their effects... But the ocean was quickly being.... Drained? The portals were still active. C2323 couldn't stop the portals, either... But where had they led to? Usually, you had to think about where you were going to make a spell like this work...
C2323 looked up and found the answer to his question. The second portal, high above in the sky, showed the scene of some sort of dark place with very grey hills. Water could be seen entering that place and being risen into the sky of that realm.... This place was radiating with negative energies.
And the portals roared, the vibration from that roar causing the waves to rise up hundreds of feet in the sky and causing all of hell to shake. That wasn't just a roar. It was a deceleration of war... Or was it a cry for help? Either way, C2323 listened to the call. He tried to follow the sound of the roar and began ascending into the sky at his own will.
-
Before C2323 could make it to the portal, back out of it, fell the vortex of mixed magic types and water in a waterfall of attacks. The moment Hikaru had seen C2323 going towards the portal, she had used the control she still retained over the vortex to bring it back out of the portal and falling back onto him. Her circle was lost as she had dropped control. But the vortex was still forms of her own magic, and Hikaru retained full control of it.
As the attack fell down, portals of Hikaru's own, opened both above and below C2323, hovering over the his portals. If the attack should fall into the lower one, it would fall back out the above one to attempt to strike him again.
-
C2323 saw a massive, deformed Genesis Revelation Waterfall Half-Vortex hurling down towards him. He turned his attention back to Hikaru, grinning. "Fine... Let's settle this. I open you, secret internal fire!"
C2323 began to fall right along side the super powerful vortex. C2323 was falling head-first, right towards the water, circling as he fell. He didn't even flinch as what would normally be his death came closer and closer... And then, half-way down, C2323 landed rather roughly on the form of a dragon. The fire vortex kept falling, left to an endless loop. C2323 didn't care either way, because it wouldn't touch him. It'd just keep falling over and over.
C2323, meanwhile, had hitched a ride on his dragon by now towards Hikaru, grinning as he yelled down to her, "Hey, Hikaru! It's time that you feel the full wrath of our family! Kai and I had a blast when we first learned about this! Come on!"
C2323 and his dragon were now soaring in circles around the area, and a look of pure joy was on C2323's face. It was as if he'd had his memories of not being K2323 wiped clean. His back now seemed to be spurting dragon wings, too. He was well aware of the wings. As they continued to grow, he was soon not flying ON his dragon, but beside it.
"Hurry up and get up here, the breeze is amazing! Let's fight up here!"
-
But as C2323 would soon find out, the attack continued to follow him. Both portals stayed above and below him, and went everywhere that he went. The attack that fell between them, keeping up with him as well. However, something else happened. As the Genesis-Revelation-flamed water vortex of doom fell through one portal, out of the other portal, it duplicated. And then fell again through the other, repeating the process. By the time C2323 had flown away, it had been multiplied into several vortexes of the same strength. Then around him, portals appeared in front and behind him, the duplicated attacks switching to those, creating a four way homing attack.
Hikaru who was still displaced, merely stayed silent.
-
"You won't stop me, Hikaru!" C2323 yelled, laughing, "Not with such a weak attack like this!"
Every single portal now open -- the ones around C2323, the one in the sky, and the one on the ocean floor -- started to move towards the floating island in the sky, leaving C2323 alone. C2323 watched as the portals went towards the island. He was amused. Greatly amused.
Of course, Hikaru's magic on an even natural level resisted C2323's spell. He didn't care. He used the struggle between the portals to escape the grasp of those portals and then, from a distance, continued to fight those portals and make them float away. To assure himself in case those portals merely teleported to his new place (a good mile higher in the air now), his entire body's surface seemed to be a portal now. Anything that attacked him would go through that portal and end up in that dark realm from before.
Meanwhile, C2323's portal-form, resting comfortably on his dragon without absorbing it, continued to transform, even if it wasn't as obvious since he was basically wearing a portal as if it were a full-body-suit. He was now growing a dragon tail!
-
"Fine.. If that's the way you want to play it." Hikaru appeared with a sigh frustration, floating high in the air. With a flick of her hand the portals disappeared, but the attack didn't. Instead, the vortex was called back to Hikaru's hand, and the mixture of magic types formed its self into a staff before her. Revelation and Genesis wound themselves around each other, with the water between them, the staff taking the form of a entwined magic, which solidified into a metallic form.
Feathers fell in a rain of plumage as crimson red wings sprouted from Hikaru's back, tipped in gold, and the underside as gold as well. The wings were of a 15-foot wingspan, longer feathers towards the very end of them near the back, winding down, in strands with aglow with holy fire. Hikaru's own golden eyes were stained crimson, flames swirling around the iris. "Then bring it." She grabbed the staff which grew to her full height, the metal glinting mysteriously.
-
C2323 laughed lightly, taking in Hikaru's moves, somehow being able to see past the portals which coated him. Suddenly, the portal's shape changed drastically as his hands began to change into claws and his neck began to expand slightly. Fire began to spurt up... Through the portal form that encased him. The portals still encased him, yes, but now they seemed like nothing in comparison to the fire which encased those portals.
"Iik suu!" C2323 yelled from underneath the fire and portals. From the half-drained water that remained, now still, below the two, there came a giant ball of green energy which seemed to be sparking with magic. The air around the ball was exploding from the sheer force of it. It floated high into the air -- higher than C2323 and Hikaru. There, it hovered... And everytime someone used magic, it got just a little bigger and a little more fierce.
-
Hikaru looked above her to the sphere of magic. So that's how it was going be? Very well then. Reaching to her neck, Hikaru ripped the clock pendant that was hanging around it, the pendant Asura had given her. Asura had said it was good for one Time spell in full embodiment control. Well, now was as a time good as any other. Hikaru couldn't afford to lose this match!
Pendant in hand, Hikaru gently gave it a squeeze and clicked the adjustment pin on top, holding it down. As she did this, the hands of the watch began to spin, and a spell of time was released, leaving the effect blank until Hikaru willed just what she wanted to do. In this case, it was to freeze time. Command sent, the area of the domain tinted to a teal monochrome color. Everything around besides Hikaru, stopped, frozen in time.
Wasting no time, Hikaru spun the staff, releasing wave after wave of Revelation-Genesis magic, sent straight at the sphere, a portal opening behind it, to catch it when it was pushed through. The output portal, opened above the first torture hole of Hell.
Time Freeze: 1/3 Posts.
-
The sphere went through.
http://shatteredplanes.com/index.php?topic=2376.new#new
Then, suddenly, a new portal opened. On the other side, the crackling of exploding magic could be heard. The ball didn't come through. Not yet. It was waiting for something. Time's effects wouldn't be able to touch it until it came through that portal... And yet it could touch time. The ball, already significantly larger now, was feeding off the embodiment of time's power.
And an embodiment was pretty powerful.
-
Pocketing the now useless pendant. Hikaru proceeded to disappear, every trace of her remaining, gone. The time spell the only thing left. From the sky above, a sheet of golden snow, so pure it hurt to look at, began to fall.
Time Freeze: 2/3 Posts.
-
The ball didn't move either.
-
When hit from the snow, the remaining water turned gold as well, harmless for the moment, but bright with purity.
The Time spell began to fade, its effect dispersing. The color of the area slowly returning to its original tones.
Time Freeze: 3/3 Over.
-
C2323 snapped back to time, looking around, confused. At that moment, the energy ball flew into the arena from its portal, incredibly large. As it entered, the gold ocean below began to be attracted to the ball as water began to rise through the sky to meet it. It was absorbing more and more magic and growing larger and larger.
-
However the golden ocean wasn't magic, or it was, but it was encased in spirit energy with a thin line of Psi between the magic and spirit energy. Therefore, it remained where it was, and left the sphere alone.
-
But considering the ball was now absorbing any sources of power (besides its creator, anyway), as it had done to the time spell, the ocean did begin to rise towards it.
-
Except the ocean of gold? Had its own effect. The magic of the ocean, instead of being absorbed, proceeded to in counter, absorb the magic of the orb. The golden snow from the air above, fell and sprinkled over the sphere, also absorbing bits and bits of it, the more snow, the more it absorbed. And because it was basically in the damn ocean, the ocean was a sea of absorption.
-
The green energy had a defense against this very sort of thing. Whenever the golden snow or water got within its radius, it hit the initial effects of the ball... The exploding bits of magic surrounding it. Now, it wasn't just magic which was exploding. It was anything which came near it.
Whenever the snow or water got to the orb, it'd explode, that explosion breaking its particles apart and converting it into absorptive material at the same time. Meaning, anything that tried to touch the ball would go through an explosion which would captivate its particles. It wasn't able to absorb the green ball because it was being broken apart before it even got to that green ball.
-
Out of tricks to stop the ball. Hikaru did nothing. Or at least... nothing that was seen.
-
And so, the ball continued making energy explode before absorbing it until the ball was... Well, the size of a planet or so. Meanwhile, C2323 was almost completely transformed. The massiveness of the ball which floated above his dragon form suddenly was covered in a blast of incredible fire as a massive explosion came from C2323's body. The ball absorbed the blast -- and C2323 along with it.
The ball was almost at its peak point. If it was about to cause mass destruction.
-
Hikaru continued to do nothing.
-
It was done.
The ball, the moment it had entered hole 1, had been given the power of Vincent Hearts. Vincent Hearts, AKA Dmintor, had been in hell for thousands of years. Even after his absorbing by Abel, what was left behind in hell of him remained there as Hole 1, doing nothing for centuries.
This being said, Dmintor had power over hell. Well, some of hell. He had a lot of control over the dimension -- not as much as Lucifer, no, but a lot of power over it, yes. That combined with all the power the ball had just absorbed... Made the ball incredibly powerful. And C2323 was now at the center of the ball.
The ball did not explode. C2323 didn't absorb its power, either. No, it didn't float up into the portal of Plex, if that's what you're thinking. It just stayed there... But a ripping noise could be heard throughout all of Hell as if paper were being torn. It got louder and louder... The ball was burning a hole into the databus, the connection that hell had with Plex. It was digging into that databus... And replacing hell as the surface that was connected to it.
Meaning, C2323's massive ball of energy was becoming a dimension. And hell? Hell was slowly but surely being detached from Plex.
-
As soon as she sensed what was happening, Hikaru shuddered. The ripping sound wasn't a good sign. With the sphere seeming to be the cause of it, Hikaru quickly made up her mind and did the one thing she knew to do. Continue to go after the enemy. Encasing herself in Holy Fire with a layer of Genesis around it, then Revelation around that, and finally around it all a layer of godfire. Hikaru flew, head first, at the speed of sound, into the created ball of energy.
Flying passed the destruction of the energy, but with the combined layers of different magic and fire to protect her, Hikaru continued on into it, heading for the center.
-
At that center, the dragon-portal-fire-cyborg-clone-C2323 was nowhere to be found. The ball of energy continued to push hell away.
-
When at the center, Hikaru remained there, afloat. Focusing on the layer of godfire around her, she expanded it with her mind, pushing it into the energy around her and causing it to flare up into a larger state. The Revelation and Genesis magic did the same, as well as the Holy Fire. All flared up and began to push the walls of energy of the sphere from the inside center, creating a Hikaru's own sphere around herself. This sphere continued to grow as it flared up larger and larger, pushing C2323s sphere even further in attempt to overtake or disperse it.
-
Suddenly, a thirteen year old girl appeared. (See the topic: "The Center Of Hell!") She was right inside the center of Hikaru's sphere, seemingly hardly effected at all. She was just about to take action when suddenly, there was a massive explosion in another part of the ball of energies. The girl looked over to see it...
The entire ball of energy was being pulled into some sort of hole... Where did it lead? It seemed not even the girl knew.
-
At this point in time, Hikaru didn't even care. A girl she didn't know was in her sphere? Hikaru didn't notice. The sphere was being pulled? Hikaru took no notice of that either. By now, she was too focused on the battle at hand, all of her attention drawn to winning and only winning. The clone may not have been her brother, but he was the closest thing in this tournament. And with the rivalry that had spanned thousands and maybe even more than that, years by now. Hikaru was going to win this and prove herself through whatever it took. And no distraction was going to stop her.
Curling herself into a fetal position and wrapping her wings around her. The sphere around her grew further, pushing into the very energy of the C2323s ball, the many kinds of magic and fire, mixing into a more dangerous combination and striking the other energy ball from the inside more fiercely than before. Attempting to completely overtake and consume it whole.
The staff Hikaru had from earlier, spiraled above its master, slinging more energy of Revelation-Genesis magic as it twirled, feeding more and more energy into Hikaru's own sphere.
-
C2323's sphere fought back, pushing against Hikaru's energy. The two energies were clashing head to toe. Everything around the ball had, by now, been wiped out. The two energies and all that encompassed them now were falling through the massive hole which had appeared. They fell into that blackness...
And then, the hole behind them closed up automatically -- the energies of the hell and the dimensional plane and what not sealed that hole shut. So, here was the scene the three left behind... The ocean, by now, was basically completely drained.... And hell was shaking. It was shaking real bad. The new 'dimension' was now gone and its effects at ripping into hell and pushing it off its own databus were now no more...
But in the sky of the area C2323 and Hikaru had left behind, small samples of dimensional radiation began to enter hell. There was also a massive portal to Plex in the sky. From the Plex portal, a black smoke seeped out and over to the hole in the wall of Hell. It began to repair that wall for some reason or another... It wanted hell preserved.
But... Where had C2323 and Hikaru (and the thirteen year old girl) gone?
