[IC] A Hero Tale {Complete}

[tex]

The golem swatted Jenso's thrown debris away like a small stone and went for yet another pillar, the last one on the second floor, and broke it in half. With one shard in each hand, the Golem launched both at Jenso, one after another, in an attempt to strike him after he dodged the first one.

The cracks in the ceiling were very evident now, but with no more pillar for the golem to destroy, it didn't look like it was going to break apart by the Golem's hand.

[Jensoman]

Jenso attempted to dash out of the way if the first shard, and glared at the second shard that was incoming. He grabbed the largest ice shard that was nearby from the broken staircase at the last second, as a surge of power rushed through him. He maintained a sturdy stance as he used the large chunk of ice as a shield from the one that was about to strike him. If he were succesful to stop the incoming shard, he'd use the shard he used as a shield and ram his fist into it to launch it at the ceiling with great force.

[tex]

Jenso withstood the brunt of the oncoming ice pillar and launched his makeshift barrier at the roof successfully. Upon impact, the cracks worsened, and several small pieces of the roof fell down, striking the Golem's head. They were far too small to inflict any real damage, but the titanic golem looked up clumsily, distracted by the possible danger of a falling roof.

[Jensoman]

Jenso grabbed the sharpest, biggest chunk of ice that he could see and threw it at the golem's head. He let out a loud whistling noise as the shard was about to strike him in an attempt to get the golem to look at his direction and at the shard.

[tex]

As the shard flew through the air, Jenso's whistle prompted the golem to turn his head casually in his direction, only for it to be impaled by the giant shard. The golem staggered back slightly and reached up to pull the shard out of its head. It missed its core by a couple feet, but its face plate was slightly cracked now.

[Jensoman]

Jenso grabbed another large chunk of ice as a surge of power rushed through him. He threw it at the ceiling.

[tex]

The Ice titan saw Jenso's plan a little late, but as soon as the ceiling was struck and began to creak, he rose both his hands, and held it up like a golem-like pillar. It wouldn't fall now, but then again, he couldn't exactly move while holding up so much weight.

[Jensoman]

Jenso glared at the titan as he held the ceiling up, and grabbed another sharp shard from the ground. A surge of power rushed through him as he threw it at the golem's eye with great force. He hoped the golem would be too preoccupied holding up the ceiling to notice the shard incoming. "Hey buddy, you doing okay there?!" He shouted, hoping that the golem would look at Jenso's direction again as the shard came close.

[tex]

The golem's eye lined up with Jenso again, but the light in its sight flickered out as soon as the shard of ice struck its face and split it in half. The entire golem's body twitched for a few seconds, and then it came crashing down, along with the ceiling. Ice blocks and shards fell from above, creating a literal mountain of climbable ice and crushing the Golem's corpse beneath it. The sky was revealed, and a storm of sleet and snow flooded the entire main hall, including the throne room.

[Jensoman]

Jenso glared up at the throne room above as the golem went down. "Wow, that was crazy.." Jenso muttered, taking deep breaths. With the staircase destroyed, Jenso began to climb the ice wall. He melted holes in the wall for his hands and feet so he could climb up, eventually making his way to the floor above. He landed onto it, and headed for the throne room to seek the strange man and Paulie.

[tex]

Jenso finally made it to the throne room, and was face to face with the masked man who'd frozen Paulie in a block of black ice. Behind him there was yet another door, now revealed from beneath a large blueish curtain of silk. "A Titan Pharie has fallen to you?" The boy said, his voice warbling with magical disruptions. "Your energy signature... What a troublesome human."

Paulie's block of ice was pushed aside by the boy in one small flick of his wrist. He then turned around and rose a hand, opening one of the massive doors behind him. "You are too late. Preparations are almost complete," His voice trailed off as he continued to walk away, into a large open balcony area, where Pharie's meteor stood with two more titanic golems grasping it with both hands. They seemed totally focused on draining it of its energy, while their master looked up eagerly and smirked.

Chapter 26

_{Unparalleled Frost: Gol-Ira}

The ritual had begun, and the small masked boy was about to place his hand on the meteor, disregarding Jenso entirely despite his earlier feat.

[Jensoman]

Jenso dashed at the boy as he was about to place his hand on the meteor, and attempted to kick his hand away before he would be able to touch it.

[tex]

The boy spun towards Jenso very quickly and caught his foot in midair. "Hm? Heated?" He muttered softly. But within seconds, Jenso's heated aura was overpowered by the boy's cooling Aura, and his foot began to succumb to a chilling sensation.

[Jensoman]

Jenso attempted to pull his foot free, and punched at the man's stomach with his right fist. "I won't let you touch Pharie's meteor! I'm gonna kick your ass!" He roared.

[tex]

The boy phased backwards like he was floating on air and conjured seven icicles that spun around his body like a horizontal shield. "Is that so?" the boy inquired sarcastically. With a raise of his hand, the icicles all lined up in front of him and shot towards Jenso in a line.

[Jensoman]

Jenso attempted to hop over the incoming icicles, and aimed a kick at the boy's right knee with his left foot. He didn't exactly like attacking a kid, but he needed to stop him. He hurt his friend, and wanted to abuse Pharie's powers.

[tex]

The boy twirled in midair diagonally, dodging Jenso's kick and arcing his right hand out like a hook as he spun around. He approaching jenso while spinning diagonally and aimed to dig his right hand, which he covered in a thin coat of ice, into Jenso's left shoulder.

The seven icicles from before embedded themselves in the ground behind Jenso and created a line of spikes.

[Jensoman]

Jenso moved further to the right in an attempt to avoid the boy's attack, and turned to face him, aiming a punch with his left hand at the boy's stomach.

[tex]

Jenso Narrowly dodged the boys icy dagger of a hand, and struck his stomach hard. His heated hand quickly lost its power though, and although he burned away part of the boys blue cloak, he did not seem to inflict any damage on.. What?!

His stomach was blue like ice, and see-through like the rest of the golems. Was he a golem as well? An intelligent one? Madness! "Return," The boy muttered, landing a few feet back from where he was struck. The icicles behind Jenso made a distinct Snickt! sound and flew back towards him in a row once again.
