Elenore laughed, watching her little show from above. Her and Xisuma were terrorizing their third town. Looking around slightly she forced out a sigh. Honestly- as fun as destroying towns were, she still couldn't find the passageway... She needed to find the right way down if she wanted to find the relic holding the other half of the beast... She was so close. She could feel it. Or- the monster could at least...
A scream pulled her from her thoughts, and she looked back down. Xisuma had trapped someone beneath his foot, both his fists warm with white fire... Elenore smirked. After a little more watching though, Elenore called him to her side. "ℸ ̣ ⍑ᔑℸ ̣ ╎ᓭ ᒷリ𝙹⚍⊣⍑ ⎓𝙹∷ リ𝙹∴. We've had our fun, but we must move on." she said, looking around again. "Have you scanned the area yet?" she asked, glancing back to the admin.
Xisuma watched her for a long moment, then turned slightly away, spreading his hands far apart. Clapping them with sudden speed and force, he sent a little shockwave of some sorts past him and Elenore, traveling all around... He waited, then looked back to Elenore, shaking his head.
Elenore forced out a sigh. "Fine..." she muttered. She turned slightly and started forward in one direction. Xisuma followed her.
"So boring... If only we could find the other half... then we could cause destruction far worse than we have before! My father isn't well enough to take it down this time...." she chuckled softly. "With everyone gone and running, no one could take it down."
"...It has only been a couple days. It should be found soon." Xisuma said quietly.
Elenore glanced at him. "Ah- yes, you're right... We only just started. We can still keep going." she said. "The next town is just a few minutes away. I can already see it..." Elenore looked back ahead, to the buildings in few. Wings were honestly quite handy.
She watched the buildings grow larger as she came closer, then looked to Xisuma again. She raised an eyebrow slightly and chuckled. Xisuma was looking at the town with intent, his first curled slightly. "..Are you waiting for me to tell you something?" Elenore asked.
Xisuma looked to her, and gave a small nod.
Elenore laughed. "...⊣𝙹, ↸𝙹 ⋮⚍ᓭℸ ̣ ᔑᓭ ╎'⍊ᒷ ℸ ̣ 𝙹ꖎ↸ ⎓𝙹∷ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷ !¡∷ᒷ⍊╎𝙹⚍ᓭ ℸ ̣ 𝙹∴リᓭ." she said. "Have a little fun..." she smirked. Xisuma nodded- then suddenly teleported away.
Only- Xisuma teleported back to her.
Elenore furrowed her brow. "What are you doing?" she asked.
"...They're here." Xisuma said.
Elenore raised an eyebrow and looked around a little. "Who? The relic- Zeqain and the others!" she said, blinking at her realization.
Xisuma gave a small nod. "They are near."
Elenore looked back to him, watching him a little. They were going to be after him... As long as she could keep Baisley and Zeqain occupied, they wouldn't be able to reach him... "ᓵ𝙹リℸ ̣ ╎リ⚍ᒷ ᔑᓭ !¡∷ᒷ⍊╎𝙹⚍ᓭꖎ|| ᓵ𝙹ᒲᒲᔑリ↸ᒷ↸."
Xisuma nodded and turned, teleporting away once again.
"ᒷꖎᒷリ𝙹∷ᒷ... ∴⍑ᔑℸ ̣ ╎ᓭ ╎ℸ ̣ ||𝙹⚍'∷ᒷ ↸𝙹╎リ⊣ リ𝙹∴? You don't have to be doing this- please..."
Elenore tensed, and quickly turned around. "Zeqain!" she narrowed her eyes. Now in front of her, the watcher hovered just at her level, only a bit away. Elenore growled, looking him up and down. "..You changed.." she muttered. "-You and I were supposed to rule the worlds together!" she snapped at him. "We still had the Nether to take over! You betrayed me!" she shouted.
Grian bit his lip, moving back just slightly. "I know- I get that. But we shouldn't have started it in the first place- you've been taking it too far anyway!" he said. "Please, Elenore, please stop this!" he asked, reaching for her hand.
Elenore growled, pulling her arm back and out of his reach. "I've already said it once, Grian." she spat. "You never went far enough."
Grian bit his lip hard... This wasn't working. "Look, Elenore. I don't want to fight you, but you need to be stopped!" he said. "This monster is going to destroy everything if it isn't stopped!" He said. Mumbo got through to him- he had to try to get through to her. But how?
"Isn't that the point?! Take everything down, and with the beast in my hands... I'll be on top of it all!" Elenore chuckled, gesturing slightly to the relic she wore that was keeping the monster prisoner.
Grian shook his head. "No, Elenore. If the monster destroys everything, it would only destroy you too! And if it didn't- who would be there with you?!" he asked loudly. "We're trying to stop it- what if it killed me?! What if you never saw me again??" he pleaded desperately.
Elenore hesitated. She paused- seeming to think it over for just a second... Grian paused a little, becoming hopeful. He was getting somewhere.
Elenore narrowed her eyes and growled. "Do you think I care anymore?? You lost me the moment you sided with your friends." she spat. "We are enemies now, Zeqain. You can forget about ever loving me! Besides- I'd rather see this monster cause your slow, painful death." she smirked....
Suddenly that hope Grian had was gone. Elenore just threw it all out the window. Fine... Quickly he glanced down to the End of Eyes and reached out to grab it.
Elenore shouted out and backed up, quickly pushing his arm away. "Don't you dare!"
Grian narrowed his eyes. "Hand it over- take it off!"
"You can't have it- I won't let you!" Elenore shouted again.
Grian jerked forward, reaching for it again. Quickly Elenore moved back again, summoning her sword. She swung it- stopping with the point of it just inches from Grian's face.
Zeqain froze and hesitated, blinking a little- that was close... He backed up a little. "Come on, Elenore. Please!"
"No!" Elenore growled. "If you want it so bad, then fight for it!"
"But I don't want to fight you!" Grian replied quickly.
"Well you don't have any other choice!" Elenore shouted, moving toward him quickly as she lifted her sword up.
Grian yelped a little and rushed himself back with a flap of his wings. Quickly he summoned his own sword, using it to block Elenore. "Elenore- please!" he begged.
Elenore moved her sword back to swipe it from a different direction as she shouted out again. Quickly Grian went to block it once again.
Elenore growled. "Let me hit you!" she shouted.
"Elenore, no!" he replied, quickly blocking another swing from her. "I'm not going to fight you- please!"
"You won't fight- but I will!" She said, swinging her sword yet again, with much more force this time.
Grian yelped again, moving to block it. He hadn't put enough force into his block though and it slid out from behind Elenore's blade, allowing it to continue forward from the pressure and push she'd been giving it.
Without Grian's sword blocking it though, it finished it's wide swing, striking across Grian's arm.
Grian yelped again, pulling his arm back as he moved a hand to the fresh cut. Slowly it was leaking a soft purple color- clearly, he was bleeding. He sucked in a sharp breath and looked back up to Elenore. "Elenore- please, no more!" he said.
Elenore watched him a little, glancing to his cut... She'd finally got him! Looking back to him, she smirked... She raised her sword again, and suddenly paused. "Wait a minute..." She furrowed her brow and looked around before returning her gaze to the watcher. She narrowed her eyes and growled. "This is a distraction!" she shouted. "You're here keeping me busy- while Baisley is going after Xisuma! You're trying to get him back!"
Grian hesitated. "I-"
Elenore snapped at him again, and quickly turned. Flapping her wings hard, she quickly went to find Xisuma.
Grian quickly made his sword vanish, and flew after her, looking around quickly. Baisley and the others should be with Xisuma right now... He bit his lip. He just hoped things would work out...
Elenore growled. "Where are they?!" Quickly she looked around again. Flying above the town, most of it seemed to be untouched... Xisuma wasn't doing what he was told to, then. Certainly someone was trying to get to him! "Xisuma!" she called, looking around. "ᓵ𝙹ᒲᒷ!"
Instantly Xisuma teleported to her side- he was close enough to hear her, apparently... Letting out a few heavy breaths, he shook his head. He seemed a little worn out...
Elenore furrowed her brow. "Was Baisley with you?" she asked.
Xisuma seemed to think for a moment, but he shook his head. "A group of watchers attacked, nothing more." he said.
Elenore narrowed her eyes. "You said the others were here... Where are they?" she asked.
"Right here!" Baisley shouted from behind her, grinning widely. Elenore turned, narrowing her eyes. "Come get me Elenore... I know you want to..." she smirked. "That monster is mine!" She said, quickly jerking forward to reach for the relic.
Elenore yelped and jerked back, raising her sword to quickly hit her with it. Immediately Baisley summoned her sword, blocking her sister. There the sword fight began, Baisley laughing a little too excitedly. "Finally- I've always wanted to have a real sword fight with you!" she grinned.
Elenore growled again. "You guys won't stop me- I'll take you all down myself if I have to!"
Quickly Baisley glanced behind herself. "Grian! Come help me with her! Everyone else- After Xisuma!" she shouted.
Grian was soon by Baisley's side, trying to get the End of Eyes from Elenore while the two sister's fought. The others, Pearl and so forth, immediately flew down and after Xisuma.
Elenore furrowed her brow. "What is the point of sending them after the Admin? They're useless against him- they can't do anything- they can't even stop him!"
Baisley though, smirked. She gave Elenore one certain look- causing the End Queen's eyes to widen...
Quickly Elenore turned toward Xisuma. He was already fighting them... "ℸ ̣ ᔑꖌᒷ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷᒲ 𝙹⚍ℸ ̣ ! ↸𝙹リ'ℸ ̣ ꖎᒷℸ ̣ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷᒲ ᓭ!¡ᒷᔑꖌ!"
Xisuma glanced toward her, pausing with his fist just inches from Impulse's face. What was so wrong with them speaking? There wasn't anything they could do with their words that could stop him... But alas- he obeyed. He glanced back toward Impulse, blinking as he realized he wasn't there.
Immediately he felt someone quickly wrap their arms around his shoulders from behind, trapping him in their hold for that second.
Quickly Impulse leaned his head forward, attempting to speak in Xisuma's ear. "ᔑリ↸ ᔑ↸ᒲ╎-"
Xisuma shot his head backwards, colliding it with Impulse's forehead, causing him to yelp. He then teleported from his hold to just a little bit away. Clearly, they were taught how to stop him. Now he understood. He just had to keep them from speaking the one phrase and freeing him.
Etho opened his mouth, shouting loud some feet away from the admin. "ᔑリ↸ ᔑ↸-"
Xisuma slapped his hand over Etho's mouth after teleporting to him. "...Your efforts will prove useless," he spoke quietly. Quickly Etho went to bite his hand, only to have a fist meet his face.
Cleo and Pearl put their hands to their mouths, both shouting nice and loud. But just as Etho, they weren't able to finish their words as Xisuma teleported to Pearl, grabbing her arm firmly and teleporting to Cleo, half throwing Pearl into her.
Both girls yelped, catching each other to keep from falling. Rubbing their heads they glanced back to Xisuma.
"Xisuma! Please! Don't be doing this- we need you back!" Pearl called to him, desperation in her eyes. She had to get him back- they all needed him back. For more than one reason...
Xisuma narrowed his eyes slightly. "You need me for nothing... I serve the End Queen now." he spoke softly. ..Stop fighting, stop fighting... Why can't I stop?! Spreading his wings and boosting himself forward, he raised his fist and forced it ahead, quickly colliding it with Pearl's head. Cleo quickly grabbed onto her to keep her from falling, Pearl now being unconscious.
Cleo bit her lip, looking back to Xisuma. "We'll stop at nothing.. We're going to get you back." she said, spreading her own wings quickly and pushing herself down. Soon coming to the ground, she set Pearl down. "We'll get him back..." she said quietly, before flying back up to rejoin the others.
"This clearly isn't working!" Ren stated, looking around at the rest of them. "It doesn't help that he can teleport!"
"There's probably more he could do, too! We don't stand a chance!" Impulse said.
"There has to be something! We've got to keep trying!" Cleo added.
"ᔑリ↸ ᔑ↸-" Etho once again began.
Teleporting in front of him, Xisuma suddenly swung a large stick, or branch, at Etho, colliding it with his head and knocking him out. Quickly Impulse flew over, catching him as he began to fall. Holding on to him, he then took Etho to the ground.
"We're down two people- this isn't going to work!" Ren shouted.
"Just keep trying!" Cleo responded. "It's all we can-"
Xisuma swung the stick again, throwing it with great force right toward Cleo. It collided sharply with her head causing an ugly wound- void of blood.
"..P-perks of being a z-zombie- isn't it..?" Cleo said dizzily, suddenly fainting. It was Ren's turn to catch someone, swiftly flying down to his falling friend. With luck of catching her, he took her to the ground. "We're down to three people.. This isn't working!" he repeated.
"I don't know what to do! We're running out of things- he keeps stopping us! He won't let us speak it!" Impulse said. This was a terrible situation- Xisuma could do anything he wanted to them- er, anything he was told to do by Elenore, that was... They stood no chance, they were failing.
"The problem here..." Scar finally spoke up. He'd mostly been watching from the sidelines. He... hadn't really done anything to help at all yet. "..is we're not fighting back." he continued. "Using our voices isn't enough. We need to use our fists too! We don't have magic like he does. But we have wings! We... we have each other! So stop whining like a baby and get up- both of you! Off the ground!" he spoke, raising his voice.
Xisuma tilted his head up slightly, raising an eyebrow. This was... interesting... ...Come on... come on... free me already- I can't do it alone!
Ren narrowed his eyes, glancing up to Scar.
No... no.. don't fight each other! I beg of you!
"..Says the guy who hasn't done anything to help at all! What are you going to do, huh? Keep watching while we pretty much beat ourselves up?!" Ren shot at Scar. "Maybe you could try speaking up- maybe you could say it!"
Scar narrowed his own eyes. "Why should I? We both know it isn't going to work!"
"How would you know?!" Ren asked, lifting himself back into the air and to Scar's level. "You haven't even tried yet!"
Xisuma smiled, letting out a chuckle from their arguing. This was becoming rather amusing.
"Well you haven't tried to see if fighting would work, have you??" Scar responded. "Go on- give it a try!" he said, gesturing toward the admin. "He's right there!"
Ren began to growl. This man infuriated him... His anger was short lived though- as Elenore shouted loud enough for the admin to hear. "...ʖᒷℸ ̣ ℸ ̣ ᒷ∷ ||ᒷℸ ̣ , ꖌ╎ꖎꖎ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷᒲ ᔑꖎꖎ!"
"No- no!" Grian began to panic- he struggled under the weight of Elenore. On the ground they now were, the watcher beneath her feet.. Baisley lay some meters away, unconscious on the ground. A large gash bled beneath her left eye, stretching to the ridge of her nose.
Elenore applied pressure on Grian's chest- one foot lay there, keeping him down. Her sword was beside them both, blade forced into the ground, and through a feathery eye pattern on Grian's wing.
Elenore laughed at Grian's terror. "⊣𝙹 𝙹リ, ꖌ╎ꖎꖎ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷᒲ ᔑꖎꖎ!" she repeated.
Xisuma watched her, not a single hesitating move coming from him as he firmly nodded, glancing back toward the others. He let out a smirk and curled his hands to fists, white fire now emitting from them. "..Let's fight... Shall we?"
...No... no... no! It can't go this way- it wasn't supposed to! ...You promised they'd live...!
