How am I still alive?
I see Antasma prepared to launch the bolt when he seems to flinch and the bolt he was holding fell on top of him creating a explosion. When he flew out of the forest, I saw not 1, not 2 but 3 Black Kats and they said "We just made it and let's get to our base Lucario". I try standing up but I fell down and cried in pain. I said "Antasma must have broke my leg when he attacked me earlier". 2 of the black kats went under Lucario and carry him to their base. As they reach a hidden spot, the black kat who wasn't carrying me who I think was the leader of the 3 pulled down a lever which opened up a door to a secret lair. They bring me inside and placed me on a bookshelf and removed the other shelves so I could get up when I felt better. They started to talk among themselves and decided what to do. They said "Should we tell Lucario about the last Gran Faust location?" "Not sure but the fact he has strong self-curse is going to help him get the sword" "True, he needs a weapon to attack because his saws are useless without him taking heavy damage". They turned back to me and told me what the plan was. They then told me "Lucario listen, we have the location of the last Gran Faust that hasn't been destroyed but it is hiding in the forest which is blocked to all enemies except to curse dealing enemies or if they suffer from self-curse and the barrier disappears when the sword has been removed though". I tell them "Have many people tried to recover the Gran Faust?". They replied "No-one has ever made it to the center without being killed before". They then said "We will leave in 1 hour so you can restore your health and if Antasma enters the lair, he will be brutally killed!".
((OOC: Took me and Troloe to decide what was to happen.

WELP. THAT CANT BE GOOD.
The world around Nevo was starting to blacken. Whatever that "recon ranger" injected into him, was making him tired. " Well... You guys are talking up a blast... I'm... Just gonna... Sleep for a whi-..." And with that, Nevo was out cold.

Umm....
"Wait, what? Of course I'm a medic." Minion started to sweat, and mentally asked Serris for help. He got the answer then.
"Yeah, I'm a medic." He said, pulling a needle out of Nevo's body, which started to bleed again. "God, no!"
Desna looked at him. "Fine, I'm not a medic. I'm...." Before Minion could say his true purpose, a sharp pain shot through Minion, and he blacked out.
Nova is still bleeding.

A loud noise booms into the arena, which startles Eve awake, "Please, you're not safe here. Come with me." A young boy suddenly appears, and extends his hand to her.

I'm running, panting and
I'm running, panting and sweating from exhaustion. "Get HIM!" Someone yells. Damn! It's a dead end. I throw myself behind a barrel at a desperate last attempt. I close my eyes and hope but before long a rough, gloved hand grabs me by the collar and I temporary choke for a while. He drops me in the middle of the alleyway.
"YOU BAG OF SCUM!" The man shouts. I try to talk but all that come out is a whimper. He smiles at me wickedly. He crouches next to me and whispers in my ear, "So you're scared of me huh?" I wince as he slaps me hard. He searches through my pockets and I punch him in the face. He stares at me and wipes the blood that is slowly dripping from his nose. He then punches me hard so that I stumble backwards. I hurriedly stand and duck under his incoming fist. I manage to deliver an upper cut to his jaw and a smash to the temples. He is then knocked out cold by a slam with my foot to his face.
Another enforcer attemps to tackle me but different actions can cause different reactions. A punch to the nose brings tears, a kick to the stomach causes the victim to double over and a knee to the face brings unconciousness. The enforcer dropped like a bag of potatos. However before long I am captured and bound.
"NOOOOO! Please! Please!" I shout before blacking out.
===
I sit up bolt up right in a cold sweat. Where am I? I look around to find my self in a comfortable bed in a dim lighted room. I quickly check my leg to see it banadged up.
"Your leg was infected." I jump at the voice and see a figure in a warden's armor emerging from the shadows.
"I'm your medic for today."

I am so weak...
1 hour passed and I had some more energy but my leg wasn't any better so the Black Kats carried me to the location of the last Gran Faust and I see a barrier which looks weak but when we passed through it, there was tons of curse energy inside. As we started to move inside the barrier towards the sword, the black kats started to slow down and started to get pushed back and they dropped me when they got pushed back. The leader of the Kats said "Lucario, you need to get the sword by yourself, we are too weak to reach the center and good luck". I thanked them and started to limb closer to the Gran Faust and I could sense so much power coming from the sword. As I reached the sword, I started to pull it out but it wasn't doing much good but I then heard the stone that the Gran Faust was in starting to break. I started to twist the Gran Faust it and then the stone broke and I was holding it in my hand but I collapsed from all the damage pulling and twisting it.

Time to kill part 2
After 1 hour passed, I heard them starting to leave their base. I started to slowly follow them to the Gran Faust location and they then entered a barrier but I touched the barrier and got hurt from it. I waited outside to kill the Kats, the Gran Faust and Lucario who got lucky twice but won't get lucky anymore. After a few minutes the barrier went down but so did Lucario. The Kats panicked and rushed towards him and they said "What happened to Lucario?" "The Gran Faust hurts the person trying to take it out and deals as much damage depending on how long he tried for which I am guessing was 2 minutes". "Yeah must have, wait what was that sound?" They turned around and see me preparing a powerful plasma bolt which I used to kill the 3 remaining kats. I start to talk again when Lucario was down. "Well, well, well, look at who's down now". "You are useless, you are a waste of time and you are very useless with all weapons which proves the fact you should DIE!". I charge my Plasma Bolt at Lucario but the attack failed because a beam of light protected him and I then said in an angry tone "WHY ARE YOU SO DIFFICULT TO KILL?!?! I AM GOING TO KILL YOU LATER, I AM GOING AFTER DESNA'S ARMY AND DESTROY THE ENTIRE BASE SINCE THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO FIGHT BACK OR GET PROTECTED!!!!". I run out of the forest back to Desna's recon base and destroyed the doors.
((OOC: The light around Lucario is an element for him to learn the advantages of Curse and he gets a few items as well.))

I'm gonna stop this. Wounded or not.
Nevo woke with a jolt. Desna and that strange recon ranger had left. Maybe to fight, but who knows. Serah was still on the table, probably sleeping. Nevo had almost recovered to a state that he could walk and swing his sword, but not much else. After debation (with himself) to disobey Desna's orders and walk, Nevo, trying his hardest to stand, after various attempts, finally got up. Blood was still dripping slowly from his chest, but the explosion from the front of the base was more urgent. Nevo made his way to the front door, only to find a sort of phantom, obviously enraged by something.
Nevo considered his options.
1) Stay and fight. High chance to die.
2) Run. High chance to die.
Well... Shoot.

Hmm... Let's just say I'm there?
The medic walks out and leaves me to silence. I suddenly hear a loud smash of wood. I manage to limp out of bed and walk around. I look through the darkness at the door. I sigh and hurry to it and open it. I walk up the corridor and see the front door smashed to pieces and I see an enraged, demonish being staring at another knight inside of the camp. I am startled by the situation and my hands suddenly seem to suffer from a small electric shock. I look at my hands curiously and see static jumping from my fingers. I focus on making the stactic into a controlled ball of energy until I am left with a small orb of lightly crackling energy in my hands.
Well, what have I got to lose? I think and hurl the bolt of energy at the demonish being.

Reinforcements
It had taken the better part of an Hour for the Supplies and Deadman to make it back to were Desna's last known location was. Looking around the Warden could see the wounds of a battle, even a small fight leaves the greatest scars. From the looks of it, no one suffered major damage safe for the attacking force that was. "Alright, go ahead and move the crate inside. Also find the Regulator that was left behind and reconnect, make sure the area is safe before opening the Port." Daud said as he walked slowly to the entrance. From the look of the front door Deadman grumbed as he saw the attack was still fresh. This, I know what this energy is...I know I have seen it before...Wait. Daud reached over and picked up a piece of the broken door.
With a flury of movement the 300 pound man rushed inside pulling his shield off his back, the normally blue/purple line becoming a very bright read. "Men to arms! We have energys of the Shadow gates, the Swarm is among us!" He yelled across the communications link to the Regulators who dropped the supplies and pulled out their blades. Since the ones who came with him were a mix of one Shadow Guardian, one Azure Knight, and one Ironmight Knight. Each of whom caring their classes respected Weapons. The two Shadow Guardians, counting the one who was still in the building, cloaked and started to recon the base making a small map for the others. Daud himself, dressed in Warden's armor fitted for being around the Swarm and Shadow Lair, Moved threw the front door shield in-front of him and Shorten Leviathan Blade at the ready. Why here, of all the places were wounded could be. Keep calm this is just like in the Shadow Lair, find the target, remove it from this area, extra wounded and Dead...unless its too late. Slowly he remembered why his nickname was Deadman. Could always just kill the wounded...no only if they are too far gone is that even something I should think about doing. As for right now, just find the creature who blasted the door down.

I am a lot better with much more equipment
I look around and see nothing but white and I thought "Did I die?". I then hear someone talking to me and said "You haven't died, in fact I saved you from a swarm creature who killed 3 black kats". I said "Where am I and that creature was Antasma who is now after me and this Gran Faust". The mysterious person said "You were able to pull out the Gran Faust which can destroy the swarm and you need to learn how the self-curse works". The strong self-curse you got from the swarm is actually a good thing". "You also got lucky that the swarm creature took your swarm power but you need to watch out for it". I finally said "I really can't attack with the curse and I am in really bad condition". The mysterious person gave me some items which give me huge protection and also said "These items only work when there is a swarm entity nearby otherwise the sword will be similar to your saws and the armor will be similar to proto armor at level 1 without being nearby a swarm entity, the max distance that a swarm entity needs to be is 50 meters which isn't much". I said "Thanks, but I still can't do much with this broken leg". The person said "I will heal you and he is a tip "When you want to temporarily remove the curse, charge the Gran Faust when you are in the radius of a swarm entity, it would only work for 1 minute but the 1 minute can make a difference". I got healed and my broken bone was now repaired and I said "Thanks for all the help and I should start to finish off the swarm". The person said "Be careful, the swarm is on high alert for all curse items, enemies and knights and do your best". I stand back up in the forest with all the items I got and my leg was all better. I then leave the forest and see Antasma who seems to be very angry and is attacking Desna's base.
((OOC: The items where Purring Kat cap, shield bracelet, sanctuary armor (Similar to vog armor and radiant silvermail minus the bonus effects), 2 True love lockets and I still have my original Darkfang Shield on my back.))

STILL ANGRY
I look inside the building and get hit by a shock bullet which knocked me back some distance and I then see some people walking inside and I just hear one of them saying "Men to arms! We have energy's of the Shadow gates, the Swarm is among us!". WELL, THEY KNOW I AM NOW SWARM BUT I NEED TO FIND SOME EXPLOSIVES IN THE BASE AND SET THEM OFF! ALL KNIGHTS INSIDE WILL DIE IN THE PROCESS AND IT WON'T MATTER IF I CAN'T CORRUPT THEM OR NOT! I rush back to the building on the other side so they don't notice me and I am now looking for explosives in the building. I start looking for some explosions but I got busted by a warden and I then rushed back out and run away far enough so they couldn't come after me. I slowly calmed down but I still had a lot of rage inside me. I need to wait for a little bit until everyone isn't paying attention and then I can kill them all.
((OOC: I really hate waiting, I have waited for 3 hours :( ))

WARNING: Mostly uneventful wall of text. Enter at your own risk.
((OOC: First of all, look at the title. This post, again, is pretty much me summing up what happened from klepto's point of view. second of all: @trole, post #217 From me, you get a 2.5/5 ish. I'm not really the best for this kind of criticism, so this might not be actually accurate at all. However, I feel that you need a bit more description in your posts [unless, of course, you already described the place]. It also feels like your writing fast, not fast as in, it takes 3 minutes to write, but fast as in, immediately after you say you need to do something, you start doing it [I put WAY too many commas there...]. As an example, in your post you put: I rush back to the building on the other side so they don't notice me and I am now looking for explosives in the building. I start looking for some explosions but I got busted by a warden and I then rushed back out and run away far enough so they couldn't come after me. It might be better if you added in-between the sentences: "I start looking for a place to start." or something along those lines. Sorry if this is inaccurate/jerkish. Wow that was long for OOC... sorry about that.))
A man in Dread Skelly starts walking 'twords us. His body, for some reason (maybe an aura accessory?) had darkness trickling out of him. Upon reaching us, he says, "This is my home. As for this place, this is a staging area were we prep ships and transports. Also known as Sight 0. As you see most of our workmen here spend their time trying to repair or fix the damages the desert out there causes our air craft." He looks at me, staring into my eyes. "I am Skotino, and this is the Darkwatch." So it's Darkwatch, not the Watch. My mind notices.
Skotino looked out at "Sight 0" and offhandedly says, "Shame...Ah well, come along. This is why you came here, to rest up and get ready." He walked slightly away, continuing to look off to the side. "Its been nearly two life times since someone came here that was not with the Watch. Most our recruits can't even make the long walk without needing help. But Daud said you were not recruits, and that the Order is after you, so your safe here. They have not found us, and unless they were to be brought here directly, they will never find us. Its from here that Section 37 takes in the many requests from the Order and or Knights of the Order to carry out the...less then desirable tasks. And one the side some personal thinks." He motion us to follow as we started walking across the catwalks.
We were a bit of the way through when a sharp bell rang and a message came through some speakers "Code Seven, Light Medical supplies and food are to be loaded on a Class Four transport with Three Regulators." That's what they call themselves, huh? Good to know... Section 37 has approved of the following, Crate labeled Ration M.R.E, Heavy Water as well as Port. This will be taken 27.4 Meters from Gate Three. Number 2 will be directing the operation their after.” the speakers paused momentarily. “Skotino, Section 37 wishs to speak to you on line ten. The inquiry was on the rival of Transport 738.”
In reaction to this, Skotino made some sort of gesture over his head and started walking to some sort of room. A he walked, he said to us, "Brake room is down that way to the left." He pointed in its direction. "Stay there for now and rest. I will be done as soon as I can. The far left side is for training, you will find everything you need to work out as well as work on your swordsmanship. Just ask the High Overseer about where you can work out." He went into the room and closed the door behind him. With no other direction, I head to the break room.
((OOC: I wanna post more as this was pretty much uneventful, but I'm not sure if it's okay for me to guess what rooms look like now. [I know that it's silly, but still.] Plus, look at its length already.))

(OOC:3.5/5 @ Dmatter. I found
(OOC:3.5/5 @ Dmatter. I found your text fine, in length and description. Also, character development and describing their reactions and thoughts to things help people get a better understanding of your character. I also agree with you on Troloe, I found it a bit... Unreasonable that he could travel so fast. There is a connection between posting things and the progression of time in the story. Troloe said "I run out of the forest back to Desna's recon base and destroyed the doors." In his last last post; the reason I find this unacceptable, because he covers what I would assume is a large amount of distance, incredibly fast. If he had just said "I run out of the forest and head towards to Desna's recon base." And ended his post like that, then it would allow other people to post events that occurred before he arrives. But anyways good job guys, good job.)
As I felt the sensations of consciousness begin to grip me, I tried to push it away, and fall back into the thick clouds of slumber, dreading the moment I would awake. Unfortunately for me, I come to, head pain dulled, but still persisting in its angry defiance of my constant weaving. My eyes felt heavy, and I knew what awaited me when I opened them. Shielding my eyes with my hand, I slowly let sight return to me. My hand made no difference, much to my dismay. The light assaulted my senses, everything bleach white, then a pool of colours, which finally settled down into shapes.
My heart began to accelerate as I realized that I wasn't at the base anymore. How many times would I have to wake up In a completely new setting? It was quite irritating, like, seriously it - My heart stopped in its rhythmic drumming as my eyes locked with that of the woman that was standing next to me. I knew it would happen eventually, I was finally in Heaven. Where else would I find such a heavenly being? My brain gave me a literal pinch as I returned to reality. If I wasn't in Heaven, who was this angel? Her vivid eyes sparkled in the somewhat sparse light, which caught behind in her flowing strawberry hair. I remained silent, completely enraptured in her beauty and perfection. She was gorgoeus; the way her face so flawless - wait a second.
"You're that girl from the arena."

Did you know that warp dust is a drug?
"You're that girl from the arena," the boy muttered.
Her heart stopped. Oh no, he knows! What do I do, what do I do? He's going to kill me! I know it, I just know it! I gotta get outta here! He's not getting up; he's tricking me, isn't he? But if he was going to kill me, he'd do it now, right? No, he's toying with me. What do I do!? Panic took her, and she fled to the door. But it wouldn't open; it just rattled in her hand. It didn't occur to her to turn the doorknob. She turned around to face him; he was just laying there, staring at her. She slumped to the floor and put up her hands. "Please! Don't kill me, please!" she squealed. She began to sob uncontrollably. She knew it was ridiculous, but she couldn't make it stop.

No, in fact I did not; who whudda thunk?
(4/5 as expected and as usual, impeccable writing. Great plot enhancer, which leaves the reader in desire c:)
Her reaction completely caught me off guard. In just a single second, I watched as her eyes cycled through emotions that couldn't even begin to describe the sort of display that the poor girl was currently exhibiting. Rubbing my head painstakingly, I wondered what this was happening to me. Getting off of the table that I was apparently placed upon, I moved gingerly in the direction of the girl. I wasn't sure what would be the best approach in my and her interest. Taking a quick his set at the situation, I deemed that there was no way the girl was going to be able to threaten me. Keeping my eyes looked on her, I tried to conjure up way I could remember. Well, she was, from what I could tell, the one tht had attempted to murder Klepto and Deadman. Then I remembered that when we had first met her, she had appeared under the guise of a guardian. Taking a quick step back, I realized how foolish I was to let my guard down in the presence if such a powerful adversary. I gripped the blade of my Combuster, knowing that this time, I wouldn't be at a disadvantage; with the exception of my headache. Not much for words, I carefully said coolly,
"Why are you here." I hesitated, adding, "What do you want."

Warp dust is used in the haven slums. Yes. Let's go with that.
Nevo squeaked a bit as a ball of lightning flew past him and hit the specter in the face, causing it to fly backwards. Various knights ran past Nevo and charged at it, but it was gone before they could reach... whatever it was. Nevo was quite amazed about everything that had happened in the past five minutes. For one, he had stood up, second, he had seen a ghost (or whatever it was) and lived, and thirdly, he saw a lighting bolt just brush his head. He couldn't really take it all in so fast, so Nevo just slowly walked back to where he was before he went to investigate, and sat down. He sat there in solemn silence, trying to make sense of what had just occurred.

Could be worse
Deadman kept his shield up as he made his way to were the Shadow Guardian's had pinpointed the last known location of the Swarm being's presence. It was a some what empty hall now with the ocational Knight looking around. No, if we have to deal with Swarm here it will do more then hurt us. Even if we manage to get the Order off our back and the person who put us in that area, we still have the Swarm. The Warden though as he kept walking looking over the top of his shield. Never once did he let it down or unready his blade because if persistince did teach the man anything, it was that an enemy will strike when your at you think your safe.
Sadly he missied the light show as the Ironmight Knight and the Azure Knight went about passing out M.R.E's and the Port to the wounded and unwound-ed alike. As they handed out the food and drink they said, "Be careful, the Port is a liquor that will ease the pain, but don't get intoxicated to the point of boligery." After they did their work each of them went back to guarding the area with the current guard. It only made since that they were working with who ever was in-charge. Daud himself however was trying to find Densa but with little luck. She is alright, some one like her can handle her self againsed mostly anything that does not get the drop on her...I think Deadman, still not completely healed from his dislocated arm, went about the base to ensure the Swarm creature was no longer present. Going into every room and even out side in a 2.7 meter stretch from the base. Might have been a little over top for security but then again he had wounded Knights that needed to either be moved to a safer location or rest for a longer time before they could do anything.
Walking back to the main hall of the base it hit Deadman, he had not slept since he woke to save his life and the signs of were slowly stating to show as he yawned a little under his helm. A nap might do me some good...But I can't rest till everything is secure....

(OOC: speaking of plot enhancers, this post was meant to be viewed in light of warp dust being a drug. I'll leave it to you guys to figure out what its advantages and disadvantages are. ^_^)
The girl whimpered and crumpled into a miserable ball as he drew his Combuster. Sweat and tears poured from her face in torrents. She shook her head, her face contorted with abject fear. "PLEASE!! NO!! VOG, NO!!" She tried to scramble away on all fours and bolted for the other end of the room. "PUT IT AWAY!! PLEASE, I BEG YOU!! DON'T KILL ME!!" She fumbled for her gunblade, and calmed down a little upon feeling its strong, reassuring hilt. "D- don't c- come any c-c-closer! I'm w-w-warning you! I will u-use this!" She snapped the weapon out of its hilt, and her hand shook as she leveled it at the young man.
__________
Desna limped around a corner and crashed into Daud. In the blink of an eye, she had him pinned to the ground with her Divine Avenger at his neck. "Oh...a Darkwatch. You guys are everywhere." She stumbled off of him and sheathed her sword. "You shouldn't scare me like that. I coulda killed you!"

Oh! Sorry, I didn't understand at first, but I get it :)
(OOC: Was the 3/5 directed towards me? If so, care to give me some critique?)
I quickly sheathed my sword. There was no way that she was planning some trick, she was deranged. I knew she could easily end my life with the pull of the trigger, but I took a second to calm down and assess the situation. I woke up with her by my side, so unless she was planning on killing me after I woke up, which I strongly doubt, there is no possibility that that is the case. She had run into the door in a futile attempt to escape, not even bothering to touch the handle. There was something really off about her, ehich meant that there was no point in reasoning with her.
Sighing I turned to look at the beautiful woman, even amongst apparent insanity and pure fear, the glittering tears on her face, coupled with her wide pitiful eyes seemed to strike at me, I couldn't harm her even if I wanted to; she had won.
"What - What's your name?" I stammered, nervously looking away; oh man why am I doing?

Thinslayer 4/5
Daud sat up as he felt his neck. "Kinda wish you would honestly. It would make this moment feel less award or at least less like I was just hit by a frate train." He said refuring to the fact he was not a light man and his armor made him more like a rock. Once he was back on his feet the Warden looked at her questioningly, but unseen. "And we are everywhere? You have only seen a few of us dear." He said in a some what joking tone of voice, it was hard for him to use a socal voice when he normally spoke in a very stricked tone. "Look, we have food and some other supplies. Go join them or stay with me and help..." he shook his head, I must sound like a dead guy... Placing the blade away as well as his shield Daud held out his hand to her, "Unless you wish an escort, my lady." Being kinda sly as he was, it still came across his mind as crude and unrefined.
---
Walking from the main office Skotino looked out across the Staging grounds. "What is going on out their...even Section 37 is getting antsy..." The leader of the Darkwatch said, not knowing what was going on made him worry. And not know what was going on was never a good sign.
((Feel free to ask Skotino any question Dmatter xD))

From fear to anger
((@Hexlash: It was directed at the post above me, Darkwatck's, but I would rate your post the same way. First off, I'd recommend breaking up the paragraph somehow. Secondly, it's too wordy. I can tell that you're trying to help the readers conjure up an image of the scene, but in this case, less is more. A few key words should bring it to life. As-is, it's a little tough to read because I have to work to form the image from the description (as opposed to spontaneously imagining it).
Strengths include grammatical correctness (including spelling), readable & coherent structure (considering the above issues), and the strong opening and closing lines.))
The girl blinked and tilted her head to the side. "What? My- my name? Uh...Claire, I think. Why? Why do you want to know? Are you...you gonna look me up? Turn me in?" Her lip curled into a frown and her breath grew erratic. "A-a-am I a threat to you? Huh? HUH!? C'mon, am I a THREAT!?" She flicked her sword again, as if to put an exclamation point on it. "TELL ME!!"

Desna looked away for a moment. She sighed, smiled, and took Daud's arm. "Y'know, why the heck not? I'll stick with you guys." She briefly turned around to look at Serah and Nevo. "You comin'?" Serah nodded and wearily fell in line behind Desna.

Let's do it.
Nevo nodded as well and followed behind the three other people.
Well, what a peculiar turn of events. Almost ending up dieing twice, held off a gremlin invasion, and I'm now walking with one of the deadwatch and two recon rangers. I didn't think I was going to be with two of the best branches in the spiral order.

Huh.
OOC: Hello? I don't know where I am right now. Let's just make Minion die, shall we? He's just a minor anyways.
-----------------------------------------------
Pain rocketed through Minion, making him spasm. 'You're more of a liability than a help. Goodbye.' A sudden chill went through Minion, and spread through him. Another second later, he was dead.

Time to destroy
((OOC: No mention about me yet?))
I waited until everyone isn't looking for me and then I decided to prepare to destroy the base. I charge my Plasma bolt as big as possible which forced me to use both my hands. I walked to the base with the charged bolt and when I was near it, I launched the powerful bolt which destroys a chunk of the base and then alarms go off. I decided to go full out attack mode and started yelling "YOU LOT ARE WEAK, USELESS, YOU CAN'T STOP THE SWARM!" and launched another bolt where the food was destroying it. "YOU ARE TOO SLOW TO CATCH ME, YOU CAN BARELY HIT ME AND YOU LOT ARE NATURALLY PATHETIC!" I then launched another bolt and it seemed to knock off a warden's shield. "NO-ONE CAN STOP ME AND YOU SHOULD NEVER TRUSTED ME DESNA!" I launch a plasma bolt at Desna but a Knight blocked the attack and when the smoke vanished, it was shown the knight was Lucario. I really lost my patience and yelled at the top of my voice "HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE LUCARIO? AND HOW IS YOUR LEG REPAIRED?" I then started to run back to try to remove Lucario from the scene but it didn't work.

Not this time Antasma
I start running towards Desna's base when I couldn't see Antasma anymore. As I was running towards the base, I hear an explosion and see some debris flying and I realized that Antasma is going to kill everyone in the base and I started to pick up the pace. I hear another explosion but I could hear Antasma screeching now and heard him saying "YOU LOT ARE NATURALLY PATHETIC!" and there was another explosion. I started to run even faster because I entered the radius that the swarm's power can reach from 1 entity and I then see Antasma now saying "NO-ONE CAN STOP ME AND YOU SHOULD NEVER TRUSTED ME DESNA!" I run in front of Desna and shielded us from Antasma's attack. The bolt he fired was really strong because there was smoke after the attack. After the smoke cleared I saw Antasma's face going redder and yelled "HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE LUCARIO!?!?! AND HOW IS YOUR LEG REPAIRED!?!?!" I see him running back but he then stopped...
((OOC: Edit: Talked with Troloe and the battle will be in 1 post (Troloe's version). I also hate waiting :( It's been 8 hours and 20 minutes for crying out loud! and this is the slowest post day ever :( :( ))

Deals with devils
((@Creeperlucario: first off, patience please. Sunday is typically a very slow day for some reason. Also be aware that people have lives; we cannot be up and posting at all hours of the day. It takes about 8 hours to sleep and 8 hours to work, which leaves only 8 hours posting time in a 24 hour day. You're lucky if we can post more often. Second, you can have your battle scene whenever you like. Ask Troloe's permission first.))
"Smoke and mirrors" always made Desna ansy. Two Void beings were throwing their weight around, and she was caught in the middle of it. Unable to tolerate it, she cloaked both herself and Daud. "Should we watch?" she whispered to him.

Offers from an Angle
Daud looked at the situation. The smart thing would be to either get their attention and move them away from here...But if we let them fight, we might only have to deal with a tired and weary enemy as appose to two fully energetic enemy's. Daud turned to were her voice came from, at least turning his head. In a low tone that only she could hear the Warden spoke. "Let them fight it out. If we are lucky, we can either cut our losses and they will move themselves away from here. Or all we have to do is deal with on weaker enemy instead of two stronger enemies at once. I say we let them fight it out and then make our way to the victor because they will be either to expended to fight, or to weak to stand up to all the forces currently here." He then turned to the battle that was about to start. "However, that is only my thoughts on the matter. What ever you decide I will follow."

"I'm inclined to agree with you. Let's stay hidden until they're done." Desna led Daud (while still cloaking them both) around a corner and then uncloaked. "Once the sounds of battle die down, I'll recloak and check it out."

BATTLE!
"LUCARIO, YOU ARE DYING NOW! AND DON'T THINK YOU ARE GETTING AWAY FROM ME EITHER RECON RANGERS!"
Lucario replies: "Leave them alone Antasma, if you want to attack them, you need to defeat me first!"
3rd person mode
Antasma throws a swarm seed in the middle of the battle field and gets stronger and taunts Lucario by saying "USING A GRAN FAUST AGAINST ME IS SUICIDE FOR YOU!!!"
Lucario launches a charged Gran Faust blade at Antasma and knocks him back (-279HP from Antasma)
Antasma launches tons of Plasma Bolts and says "HOW DID THAT DEAL SO MUCH DAMAGE!?! THIS ATTACK IS GOING TO BE THE END FOR YOU!"
Lucario starts spinning 360 degrees knocking back the bolts hurting Antasma but 1 bolt managed to hit Lucario (-413HP from Antasma, -31HP from Lucario)
Antasma started to spin around like he was dizzy but the swarm seed reached Lucario slowing him down.
Lucario run towards the seed and stuck the Gran Faust in the center destroying it.
Antasma gets better and launches more powerful plasma bolts at Lucario "NO WAY YOU WILL BE ABLE TO COUNTER THESE BIG BOLTS!"
Lucario launched his saws that he got from the ghostmane stalkers and destroyed 3 of the powerful bolts and countered the other 1 with the shield bracelet
Antasma took even more damage from the countered bolt and took out an orb from his cloak pocket. (-313HP from Antasma)
Lucario saw the orb and said "That was the orb he used to absorb my swarm power!"
Antasma ate the orb and got much stronger (Double power)
Lucario got worried and launched another Gran Faust charge at Antasma and his 3 saws came back
Antasma lost more health but charged up a giant plasma bolt which could not be destroyed or countered and also said "ENOUGH FOOLING AROUND AND NOW YOU WILL DIE!!!" (-279HP from Antasma)
Lucario launched his 3 saws before Antasma launched his bolt and charged up another Gran Faust blade.
The bolt rushes towards Lucario but the 3 saws started to shrink the bolt and Lucario also launched the powerful blade just as the bolt hit the Gran Faust.
Antasma shouted "HOW DID YOU DESTROY IT!?!?! UNLESS... OF COURSE YOUR SWARM POWER WAS PATHETIC BECAUSE OF THE SELF-CURSE YOU HAVE!"
Lucario run towards Antasma and slashed at him with the Gran Faust (-501HP from Antasma)
Antasma jumps up and does a 180 degree turn and activates a protective barrier and try's to runs
Lucario attacked the barrier and it started to crack.
Antasma shouted "YOU HAVE GOTTEN STRONGER WHICH IS BAD FOR US, YOU ARE LUCKY I DON'T HAVE MY FULL POWER YET!!"
Antasma runs away and Lucario lost him
Lucario runs back to the base.
End of battle

2/5 Antisma. I don't think any character has that much HP.
((OOC also, you're a bit too yell'y. Every thing that your character has said was (mostly) yelling.Also, that was a bit of a power play there.
Antasma lost more health but charged up a giant plasma bolt which could not be destroyed or countered. It doesn't really matter if lucario countered it at all, you can't just bring that into a fight. Again, lucario DID counter it, so it could be countered. If you have time, re-read your past paragraphs.))
Nevo watched the battle unfold. The "phantom" was back, and was yelling at a knight with a... Is that a gran faust? I haven't seen once since... Well, ever. Wait, what did that guy say again about my armor? About it glowing...? Nevo looked down at his armor. Oh, it was glowing, alright. In fact, It was glowing so much that if Nevo looked carefully, little blue sparks were jumping off it.
"Uh. Guys, you may want to see this."
(Edit: Fixed that mistake (found it! Thanks hex.) And did the math on trolololoe's post above. Antisma now has 215 out of the 2000 health he started the fight with. Hope that helps with your next writing bit, Troloe.)

(OOC: lol, it isn't really a 'lot' of HP, it's just relative. He could have 100 health and only take 4.1 or have 10 000 health and take 413, still it's a bit excessive, because we don't know how much health they actually have. 4/5 @ Nova, there was a single ignorable error, and everything else was fine. @ Thin, Ah I see okay! Thanks, I'll try and do such.)
The Knight, Claire, once again put me up against a completely awkward situation. Not sure how to respond, I pondered the best way to confront her. The moment was tense, knowing that at any second she could explode for all I knew.
I stared into her quavering eyes, and an idea struck me. It was all I got, so I asked,
"I don't know, are you a threat to me?"
(OOC: I keep ending in him talking xD)

It was the strangest question she'd ever been asked.
I don't know, am I a threat to you? She glanced at her sword, at her feet, then back at the young man. "I- I guess not..." She dropped to her knees and cried softly for a few moments. "I'm sorry! I'm so sorry, I'm such an emotional wreck. Just leave me...WAIT!! Don't leave me! Can I maybe come with you?" She crawled closer to him and grabbed him, her eyes silently pleading for help.

(4/5)
I nearly burst out laughing, the fact that I had actual succeeded shocked me.
After her moment of self confliction, I was once again left with a choice, but this time, my life wasn't on the line, I hope. What was I supposed to do with her? She could be, no, would be injured if they went back out to the battle outside in her current state.
Thinking off the battle, I realized that I had no idea how long I had been out, and didn't know if the battle was still even going on. Looking back down at her, my nerves were once again shaken at her beauty and sadness. Pulling her up gently, I said,
"What's wrong?"
I abruptly came to the conclusion that this was a horrible thing to ask her, considering her inner turmoil, and the fact that she would presumably go into another fit of devastation and confusion. Stuttering, I quickly corrected myself, "Wait, never mind... Uh, can... you tell me about yourself?"
Thinking of how my previous question had somehow managed to get her to focus, I hoped that if I could get her to get a grip on herself, she would return to the person I saw back at the chasm. Then again, she might still kill me.

"What's wrong?" What's wrong? Isn't it obvious to you dunce!? "Wait, never mind...uh, can you tell me about yourself?" Nice recovery. Claire stood up and and leaned on the table. "I'm a druggie! I eat Warp Dust and become quick and strong, but it makes my brain go all 'woo hoo!' as you can see. Do I look okay to you? Wait, you took that back, didn't you? Anyways, I'm a really Spock-logical person when you get to know me, but the dust makes my brain go all 'woo hoo!' as you can see. Did I just say that? I did just say that. See, see? That's what I was saying! It makes my brain go all...wait, that'll be the third time. I'm sorry, my brain's a big bundle of mess. But if I don't get the dust, I get all painful-like. Hurts like heck. Like Vog decided to take a bath in my brains. Yeah, that bad. You know, right? You knew that. Because everybody does. Everybody gets Vog in their brains...don't eat the stuff. It makes you crazy. Take it from me. Trust me, don't eat it. Ever. Dust, I mean. Did that make sense to you?"

Bail Bail BAIL!!
I start running away because Lucario really lowered my health and I needed to find the unknown passage elevator that isn't in the shadow lair. I lost my ability to run because of all the damage I took but I was able to find a hidden elevator. I step on the hidden elevator and went down and to my surprise it was the lift to the unknown passage. I started to move towards the core of the unknown passage but I collapsed half-way there with the lack of health.
((OOC: The giant bolt was only possible to Antasma eating Lucario's swarm power which was in a orb which he used to steal his power. My character was yelling because he was really angry at Lucario. Also Antasma's HP is roughly as much HP as Royal Jelly's Phase 1 which is roughly 2000HP.))

And when I mean structure I mean the ability to read and understand the simple fact of whats going on. In that I got there was a Hidden elevator but why was it their, how come its hidden...its confusing honestly but mah I might be picky :/))
Daud looked around the corner as he saw the fight unfold. It was a one sided battle with a very dry result, the fact the phantom looking creature just got beaten up and bolted was a good sign to Deadman that this person was going to be a challenge if they fought it. A Gran Faust, Skotino told me about those...they can cause the user to become cursed if used. But at the same time they are devastating on the battle field. All it takes is one charged shot to infect a whole host of people with a curse that could kill them. But the Stranghts of the weapon are met by the weakness, which means if the battle held out for too long the wielder would be consumed by his own curse. Daud though has he reached up to his neck and grapped a little charm. It was a simple little stone, smoothed over and clean, with the ability to resist curse. I hoped I would never have to test this.
Reaching behind him Daud pulled out his Silent Nightblade from the sheath on his hip. "Ma'am, I suggest you knock him our and or get his attention. After that I will make an attack at his blind spot. At this point he must be suffering from the strong self curse that blade inflicts on its user. Meaning out best bet is to keep him attacking if we are to eliminate our target." The tone of voice Daud had at that last word was almost devoid of any emotion at all. As if he had done this many times before to the point it has demoralized him.

3.5/5 Try and check if you have any trivial errors @Darkwatch
(OOC: @Thin Oh, is that an RP rule? I didn't know, I usually use italics for emphasis, as with bold. Or were you referring to your own post to prevent confusion?)
My eyes widened as I was finally able to comprehend the situation. Her strange explanation reminded me to never eat Warp Dust as well. It worried me, however, to find out how addicted she was. I wished that I could help her, though.
"How long is your brain going to be, uh, 'woo hoo'?" I hoped against odds that it wasn't very long.

I will get my revenge on you Lucario!
I start to awake and see some void menders healing me and they said "What happened to you Antasma? You usually never run low on health" I said "A knight called Lucario used a Gran Faust against me". "You said "Lucario? Isn't that the person the core of this passage gave the self-curse?" I said "Yes, but he seemed to have developed the curse to his advantage, the Gran Faust he had dealt over 500 damage when I wasn't in the seed's presence". The core leader came to us and said "Wait, it did that much damage?" I said "Yes leader, I need to get some help to defeat them". The leader replied "This could be a problem but if you think you can overpower him, do it just be careful". "I will wait until I get back to full health and I still have 1 swarm seed spare". The swarm leader replied "Take 20 Void Lumbers, 50 Void Gels, 80 Void Gremlins, 80 Void Zombies, 119 Void Wolvers and 1 swarm guard". I then said "Swarm guard?" The leader said "It is a guard who got corrupted instead of getting killed, these guards are very powerful but are very rare. We only have 1 but it also has tons of HP, even more than you (Roughly 10,000HP)". 1 of the menders ask me to pull up my barrier and that was cracked but the void lumbers just repaired it. The leader than continued "I will give you a bonus technique and the Swarm Guard is immune to curse but the zombie isn't for some reason". The leader showed me the new move which was the ability to copy myself at the current moment and they all act under my control. If I was to attack, the others would attack, the negative part is the copies have 1HP, no defense and very low attack. I thank the leader though and also said "Are you able to teleport the void ally's to me?" The leader said "I can plant dark portals nearby the location and you can meet them their". I said "That would be better than nothing and I should be able to stop Lucario and maybe corrupt more knights. The leader than said "That actually makes this more worth it". Time to wait to restore my health.

Why do they want to kill me?
After fighting Antasma and losing sight of him. I decided to run back to Desna's base, but my running speed was lowered because I left the swarm's radius and as I made it back to the base, I hear someone talking and said "Ma'am, I suggest you knock him our and or get his attention. After that I will make an attack at his blind spot. At this point he must be suffering from the strong self curse that blade inflicts on its user. Meaning out best bet is to keep him attacking if we are to eliminate our target." I thought "Why are they trying to kill me? I just saved them from Antasma who could easily kill them?" I feel weaker and started to lose some sight. I really don't know why they are after me, I am not part of the swarm, Antasma purified me which removed all my swarm power. I can't go back to the town because the warden's also think I am still swarm. I decided to run back to the forest since it seemed to be more safe then the base. I decided to enter the former Black Kats lair and decided to make it my home.

((OOC: It's not an RP rule, it's just a convention I always use. I mentioned it to prevent confusion.))
"How long is your brain going to be...uh, 'woo hoo'?" the man asked. Claire sighed and wandered over to the door. "Definitely maybe a day, but I gotta have more after a couple. Days. Yeah. So..." she gestured to the door, "...out?"
This time, she remembered to turn the doorknob. She stepped out and asked the young man, "Escort me to your friends? I wanna meet them, and you're cute."
__________
Desna nodded and cloaked. She snuck out and spotted Lucario running for the forest. Still invisible, she caught up with Lucario and tackled him to the ground. In an instant, she had her Divine Avenger out and ready kill. But she couldn't bring it to bear while she was still lying on top of him, struggling to keep from getting knocked off. She backflipped off of him and chopped it at him.
You have your distraction, Daud. Come on! Where are you?

The Deed. 3.5/5 All the confusion with Her posts.
As soon as he saw the man flee Daud knew he was not going to make that speed in time. Reaching up he contacted one of the Shadow Guardians, after eplaining the target as well as the reason for doing it he stood up and turned off the Communications device. "From ash's to ash's,"
---
The Shadow Guardian moved as if hell was on his flank, Blade pulled, the Silent NightBlade hissing for blood. As he moved the Guardian found Desna as well as the described target, who by now was more then likely getting up off the ground. A some what dark chuckle was heard from the left of the two. Then, from the warped world of the shadows the Guardian appeared. Blade drawn as he placed it right behind Lucario's neck pointing just Right of the spin to hit the jugular vain. He aimed the weapon, before he did anything else the man looked at Desna waiting for the nod or some kinda confirmation if he should finish the person before him.
((OoC: Lucario, do something! YOu can still save your self man. At the very least let them know your not an enemy. Also, when I say appeared from the warped world of the shadows. I mean uncloaked. Just a quick fix, because it seems as if I am placing Lucario in a Lose Lose situation, I don't want that D: ))

It suggests that the blade drew blood from an important location, yet you claimed that it's still possible for Lucario to save himself. I couldn't understand that.))
Desna stepped back and twirled her sword. "Something's off about this guy. He doesn't look Voided, but he looks an awful lot like Lucario."
She looked at the guy on the ground. "Say, what's your name, boy?" she demanded.

Get away from my KILL!!!
As I wait for my energy to restore, the swarm leader was able to detect where Lucario was. The leader said "He seems to be running towards a forest and 2 other knights are after him". I said in a really angry tone "THEY ARE GOING TO KILL HIM!!! NOT ON MY WATCH!!! ALSO CAN YOU SEND THE SWARM ENEMIES AT DESNA'S BASE BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO WEAK THERE!!!" The leader replied "I know you are angry at the fact they might kill Lucario but it helps us either ways" I notice a weird looking shield on the ground and flipped it around and the text on it said "Ancient Plate shield, be careful to not fall onto it". "This could be useful to kill Lucario and are you able to teleport me to the forest as well Leader?" The leader said "I could do that but it will take longer for me to send the other void enemies". I replied "Ok, I need to kill him before it's too late". The leader said "OK, teleporting now!". I appear in the forest and see the 2 knights hurting Lucario. I noticed 1 of them which seemed to be a guardian putting a nightblade behind Lucario and it seems to be digging into him with the other knight being Desna. I launch plasma bolts at the 2 knights knocking them back and Lucario started to bleed but his blood was purple. I start to talk again while knocking Desna and the warden down as I was talking. I said "Why are you killing Lucario, he's my kill. He would have been killed earlier if it wasn't for the alarms going off at the prison". Just then I got a message from the swarm leader saying "The void enemies are sent to the base and will be causing Havoc their". I continue talking again "You 2 are pathetic, you can't even tell Lucario isn't even part of the swarm anymore, you 2 don't have a brain between you if you can't notice". I toss Lucario up into the air, extremely high and planted the ancient plate shield where he was going to land. "In a few minutes, Lucario will be landing onto the spikes and it will kill him". "If you were smart, you could have had Lucario on your team battling the swarm but you have made it easier on me and your base will be destroyed when you come back because the swarm is now attacking the base!". I launch a plasma bolt at the 2 knights stopping them and they were positioned perfectly to see Lucario dying and seeing his blood splatter. MUHAHAHA, you made things much easier on the swarm, I thought you where smart Desna but in fact, you are stupid killing a knight who can destroy the swarm. I see Lucario starting falling down again and said "Perfect timing". As Lucario was about to land on the spiked shield, he blocked the spikes with his darkfang shield and his Gran Faust. I then said "No matter, you are already weak and that blood loss is severe as well". I charge up a Plasma bolt to finally finish him off.

This sucks
I get tackled down by a knight which was Desna. She was going to slash the Divine Avenger into me but she hesitated. She back flipped off me and then slashed at me. I then see a warden holding a silent nightblade behind my neck and seemed to be looking around. Desna said "Something's off about this guy. He doesn't look Voided, but he looks an awful lot like Lucario." She looked at me and then said "Say, what's your name, boy?" in a demanding voice. I said "My name is Lucario". Straight after that, the knights get knocked back and the warden's silent nightblade slashed my neck and I started to bleed. I look at it and it seemed to be purple. I looked in the direction the bolts came from and saw Antasma and thought "No, not now, please not now!" Antasma starts to talk and said "Why are you killing Lucario, he's my kill. He would have been killed earlier if it wasn't for the alarms going off at the prison". He then said "You 2 are pathetic, you can't even tell Lucario isn't even part of the swarm anymore, you 2 don't have a brain between you if you can't notice". He then floats towards me and tosses me high into the air. As I was going through the air I thought "I am going to die from the fall unless there is an ancient plate shield on the ground because my shield should protect me from the spikes on it and if it's not strong enough, I can use the Gran Faust to protect me. After a few minutes, I started to see the forest again and saw some spikes on the ground. I turned around 180 degrees and place the Gran Faust behind the Darkfang Shield. I landed on the spikes and I saw my shield broke but the blade shielded me. I started to lose my vision and thought "That cut is so bad, I might bleed out before he kills me. Before I lost my hearing I heard "No matter, you are already weak and that blood loss is severe as well".
I charge up a plasma bolt to finish Lucario off when I get attacked from behind which also resulted in the bolt hitting me. I flew out of the forest from my attacks explosion and saw the 3 remaining black kats now rescuing Lucario. I land on my back outside the forest and rush back in. I see the black kats carrying Lucario and I decided to slowly follow them. I then thought "They must know where the final Gran Faust location is and when they do that, I can finally destroy curse and the swarm will be safe forever". They stopped and pushed down a hidden lever which seems to open a secret lair where the kats were hiding. I wait outside listening to what they are saying. They told Lucario "that the last Gran Faust was hiding in the forest but only curse dealing enemies can enter it until the sword has been removed." They also said "We will leave in 1 hour to restore your health and if Antasma enters our lair, he would get brutally killed".
((OOC: As a side note: I am weak to my own attacks and me and Creeper decided this.))
