Zyren and Adel VS Android R and Bane [OS]

From the smoke and debris emerged the Grandmaster of the Keliouxian Scholars, his expression was colored with vexation, and it was at the moment when Bane's eyes met his that an alarm sounded within his psyche.

Vari-colored energies swirled around him - never merging like peering within a kaleidoscope. Once the energy dissipated into embers of Ki Bane's senses were overwhelmed by the power in which the Grandmaster displayed. His senses had been bounded by his will, tearing away the fabric of reality as he knew it.

----

Images of his past battles haunted him within the void of his mindscape. Yet, what horrified Bane were not the ferocity of the battles that he had partook in - it was the guilt of the sin of wrath bearing down upon his shoulders like an anvil.

First, was the death of his former master. The tall, slender Paladin master whose silver hair curtained his listless eyes. The expression that he wore at the time of his death haunted Bane as he pulled his longsword from his wise teacher's sternum. Blood wept through the wound and blanketed the floorboards of the sacred dojo.

The harrowing scene caused him to scream in agony.

Yet from the long shadow that was cast from his former master's corpse, came the the eye of a primordial being. His voice resonated within Bane's consciousness and dominated his perceptions.

Just like it had done before.

"If you wish to survive - then Obey."

Pythius, the Primordial One - was inside him still.

The scene before him that had been conjured within his mind shattered like glass. All that was left to stand were Bane and the Eye Of Pythius among the backdrop of muted colors.

"Parlor tricks." Pythius scoffed.

Bane's expression was pained, yet guarded.

"Pathetic creature. You should revile in your conquests. You slew a Master in cold blood. Rejoice in your strength!"

Bane buried his head within his gloved hands. Agony dominated him, much like it had done so during his battle on Toffit against the Primordial One.

"Let me show you who you truly are."

Colors of the past erupted in his mind - each image was filled with gaudy colors that were strident in nature. Scenes of his past victories that were not only etched in his subconscious, but in his very soul were visible in each passing second.....like a carousel of death.

He could escape what he had done even as he tried to shut his eyes to the truth. Yes, he saw the past with clarity - his eyes were wide open even when he tried to shut them.

In each image that Bane saw reflected back upon him his greatest secret - he was demon.

In the dark recesses of his mind laid dormant a sense of pride for his accomplishments. The rush of combat, the smell of blood, the sound of metal meeting flesh and bone, they were all intoxicating experiences.

And what's more - he had won them all.

Thus, whatever "nightmare" he had been entrapped him was nothing more than.....

An affirmation of his will to win.

"Perhaps you shall be a worthy vessel yet."

----

His Ki erupted around his body and it surged with primordial energies. Cardinal strands of Ki lashed out in all directions like tendrils from a demonic beast. Whipping against the Keliouxian soil and blackening the dirt into muck and mire.

The blonde's eyes shone with a flash of hellfire and his darkened expression was aimed towards the venerable Grandmaster.

"You reminded me of something," His aura encircled his gloved hand, forming a dark blade of demonic energy.

"I've put down a master before."

His body moved in a blur, leaving behind dopplegangers of himself in an attempt to confuse and confound his foe. From the side he attempted to drive his Ki sword into the obliques of Adel's body on both sides from his right and from his left, and just as quickly did he attempt to stab him from the rear, specifically his spine in hopes of causing significant damage.

---

Soul's fist crashed against R's with a meaty smack before the barrage of blows hammered into the rodent, only for Soul's last attack to come in a hard counterspun pivot that crunched against the Raccoon's ribs. He didn't know if he had injured his opponent that much, but he knew that something had happened to where he wasn't fast enough to respond. The Hybrid's last attack knocked his opponent back and into the dirt, at least temporarily, and that's when the Blond felt the wave of force crash down upon Bane.

While not a psionic, at least not yet by this Universal standard due to him being reset, his prior knowledge and experience related to him being a great esper in his previous time still made him sensitive to the changes that went on around him, especially in a high dose like Master Adel's; or even the pink-haired Zuanite's burst when they first met.

Following it was another explosion of literal energy against R's companion, and then surprisingly, the man dashed forward to deal out a payload of Ki-enhanced physical slices upon Adel. Adel took them in stride for the most part until the last, for which he phased from view and appeared at a different area to dodge the last strike. Then, Soul felt the man's energy begin to roil and build once more, and he turned to Android R and extended his own hands. His dominant hand -- the left, faced upward with the palm open and splayed out as his right supported the wrist as he concentrated on the space above it. His own energy paled in comparison to the massive amount that Adel was amassing, but that didn't mean his wasn't something that could be ignored, especially when he let his limit's go.

He pulled his knowledge and a fragment of his power from a different plane, and immediately several things happened instantly. The first was that a pocket of dark space, a void appeared above his hand, yet the very act seemed to cause his energy to sway as and abrupt pressure around R and Soul seemed to suddenly appear and build, yet it wasn't focused at R; but at the source of the disturbance that swept out among the battlefield, Soul.

A sense, a feeling of absolute rejection, caused by the Hybrid as he used knowledge that didn't fundamentally exist or coincide with the Universal Laws that existed in Universe Seven. However, Soul shrugged it off with a scowl and threw the patch of darkness at R -- which would then suddenly vanish from existence inches from his fingers before suddenly dozens, then hundreds of black rifts in space would tear themselves open only a foot or so past that. Each glimmered and spat out a mote of energy, which then built to a roar as they all closed in on R in a shotgun-esque type blast as they flew toward R like ravenous wolves to fresh and helpless Prey.

Soul backed off, regardless of whether or not it hit for Adel's own attacks began to rain down around him, and he needed to get out of the crossfire. He flickered hundreds of meters to his left and crouched, his eyes and Sense trying to puzzle R's energy signature out from among the blasts and various Ki attacks that rained down among the two hostile combatants like a literal Armageddon. He found it, and braced his arms together as he concentrated and forced his biological android blood into actions as he recalled the feel of Anna's technique that she had threatened to use on him in their last battle.

Within seconds, his Ki began to pulse and vibrate in a frequency that had no rhythm until something clicked as he pieced out an equation in his head, and he grinned. SUCCESS! YES!Simultaneous with his mental shout of joy, a holographic blueprint of Ki began to build itself in a three-dimensional model around his arms with lightning speed. Supports and plates began to be layered with gears, then complicated Ki-circuitry before a slim, futuristic cannon lay fully realized and nearly solid around his arms.

He pointed, focused his concentration, and fired.

With a roar, the blast echoed around the battlefield as a narrow, condensed Ki-bullet crossed the distance between the two fighters with the intention to spear the Tanuki through the chest amidst the end of Adel's bombardment. The attack consumed the weapon when it fired, and Soul stumbled, the two back to back Ki-usages and having to quickly format a technique that he had seen only once from scratch at lightning speed drained his reserves and gave him a headache. He groaned, grabbed his temple, and shook himself; "I can sit and recover after this, but I have to end it if Adel hasn't already!"

He glanced up and glared in R's direction; Mercy has gotten my friends killed before, and they clearly don't want it. Time to hammer it in!

Soul tensed his muscles and jumped forward, the movement shattering the ground behind him as he closed the distance to R's signature among the clouds of smoke and fire left in the wake of Adel's destruction. His movement abruptly stopped to have his wave of hyper-sonic movement blow past him and disperse the clouds, and he tried to get as close to R as possible as he began to charge the same technique. However, instead of the one hand held to support the other, he viciously swiped on R's direction and let his Ki go.

The wave swept through the air in a near invisible ripple, yet as it passed the sense of rejection appeared again once more with a even heavier tint of anger; especially when the wave revealed hundreds of penny-sized rifts. Each one repeated the previous as they spat out a globule of condensed Ki, and each mote once more rocketed across the small space between them to pepper and shred their foe without mercy.

Immediately, Soul had to bend over and gasp for breath as his hands burned, and he growled in pain from the Ki-law; Rejection Backlash! He glanced up through narrowed eyes as his Sense once more joined his eye search to see how their opponents had fared from the massive bursts of damage that had suddenly been thrown their way.
